South China Sees Drop in Chikungunya Cases 🦟📉

Foshan, a bustling city in south China's Guangdong Province, is breathing easier as new Chikungunya fever cases decline—thanks to aggressive anti-mosquito campaigns and community efforts. 🌿✨

Containment Wins

Daily new cases have stayed below 200 for five consecutive days, with over 90% of patients already recovered. No severe cases or deaths reported! Vice Mayor Wen Xi called it an 'early success' but warned against complacency.

Mosquito Warfare

Authorities are waging a full-scale battle against the virus-carrying pests: draining stagnant water, spraying neighborhoods, and targeting breeding grounds. 🚫🦟 Disinfection drives are hyper-focused on high-risk areas, turning 'hotspots' into 'cool zones.'

Typhoon Trouble Ahead?

Heavy rains and typhoons during flood season could reignite mosquito activity. 'We’re doubling down on public health campaigns and mosquito control,' Wen said. Think: fewer puddles, more prevention TikToks? 📱💡

What’s Chikungunya?

This viral infection (no, not a K-pop band name) spreads via mosquito bites, causing fever, rashes, and joint pain. Stay safe: slap on repellent and ditch standing water!
