Novita said the circular would be distributed to a number of health facilities such as Puskesmas throughout the Sleman region.
On the basis of the example presented by Novita, the circular contains 11 points.
These points describe anticipatory measures that citizens can take to prevent the occurrence of DH and leptospirosis.
Residents are also asked to report immediately if a family or a person in their environment is suspected of contracting any of these diseases.
"We will also increase fogging activities in each sub-district," Novita said.

Regarding the circular, Novita said the policy was actually implemented every year, especially at the height of the rainy season.
Because in this season, the potential for epidemic dengue fever and leptospirosis is high.
"But we also call people to stay alert for other diseases, such as acute respiratory infections and diarrhea," he said.(TRIBUNJOGJA.COM)
