The chosen areas included two sites in Talang sebayau Hamlet (RT 1 and RT 3) and one in RT 1 of Tepuk Leban Hamlet. Daniel Priya Dinata, a representative from the North Lampung Regency Democratic Party Faction, emphasized the collaborative nature of the initiative, highlighting the importance of community engagement. “This is a direct presentation of our concern for the well-being of our surroundings and community,” he stated, accompanied by Reza Suhendra, the Village Head, and a group of Unila KKN students.
The urgency of the campaign stems from the alarming surge in DHF cases, a trend notably pronounced during the transition period between the dry and rainy seasons. Kali Balangan Village has already recorded over ten residents infected with the disease in talang Sebayau Hamlet alone.The primary culprit behind these infections is the Aedes Aegypti mosquito, a notorious vector for dengue transmission.

North Lampung Fights Back: A Fogging Campaign Against Dengue Fever
The specter of dengue fever hangs heavy over North Lampung, prompting swift action from local authorities and residents. To combat this threat, the North Lampung Regency democratic Party Faction joined forces with the Kali Balangan Puskesmas, local students, and the village head to launch a strategic fogging campaign in high-risk areas.
Daniel Priya Dinata, a representative from the North Lampung Regency Democratic Party Faction, shed light on this crucial initiative. “we launched a fogging campaign on Tuesday, January 28th, 2025, targeting three specific points within the village,” he explained. “Our focus was on Talang Sebayau Hamlet (RT 1 and RT 3) and RT 1 in Tepuk leban Hamlet. This was a collaborative effort involving the North Lampung Regency Democratic Party Faction,the village head,the Kali Balangan Puskesmas,and our dedicated community members,” he added.
The urgency of the situation stems from a concerning rise in dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) cases, particularly during the transition from the dry season to the rainy season. “We’ve seen a worrying increase in DHF cases in our area,” Dinata revealed. “Kali Balangan village has already reported over ten residents infected with DHF in Talang Sebayau Hamlet alone. This demands immediate attention, and fogging is a crucial step in reducing the mosquito population and mitigating the risk of further outbreaks.”
Dinata expressed optimism about the campaign’s impact: “We anticipate that this fogging operation will significantly reduce the mosquito population and consequently, the risk of further outbreaks.”
Protecting Ourselves from Dengue Fever: A Community Effort
Dengue fever is a growing concern, but it’s a battle we can win. The key is understanding how to protect ourselves and our communities.
Daniel Priya Dinata, a leading voice in disease prevention, underscores this point: “We encourage everyone to adopt preventive measures against dengue. This includes eliminating mosquito breeding grounds around their homes, using mosquito nets, wearing long sleeves and pants when outdoors, and seeking prompt medical attention if experiencing any symptoms.Remember, we are all in this together. By working together, we can effectively combat dengue fever and create a healthier environment for everyone.”
Dinata’s message is clear: individual action can have a significant impact. By taking simple steps to reduce mosquito breeding sites, using insect repellent, and being vigilant about symptoms, we can create a less hospitable environment for the mosquito that carries dengue.
Early detection and treatment are crucial. If you experience symptoms like high fever, severe headache, joint pain, or a rash, seek medical attention immediately.
Protecting ourselves from dengue fever is not just about individual health; it’s about building a healthier community. By working together, we can create a future where dengue fever is no longer a threat.
