You should not buy medicine to take yourself. Especially NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) to reduce fever, such as aspirin and ibuprofen, because they may cause increased bleeding. If necessary, use only paracetamol. and should increase the survey and eliminate breeding grounds for disease-carrying mosquitoes. Emphasizing the measures “3 Keep, Prevent 3 Diseases” which are 1. Keep the house so that there are no dark corners where mosquitoes can rest. Rinse containers upside down and change the water in pots or vases every week. 2. Collect trash, scraps from various containers. Do not let it be a breeding ground for mosquitoes and 3. Store water by covering the water container completely.
