Laos waits for new dengue vaccine
While Laos is waiting for WHO approval of the quality of the dengue vaccine, Dr. Kongxay, deputy manager of the Expanded Programme of Immunisation of the Ministry of Health has advised members of the public to follow five principles on controlling dengue mosquito populations. Those include releasing guppy fish, closing and sealing all containers, flushing all water vessels, cleaning the areas surrounding residences, and remembering to do these tasks regularly.
