Quezon City Councilor Winston “Winnie” Castelo asked the public to take advantage of the long weekends to destroy the breeding grounds of mosquitoes that cause the proliferation of the dreaded dengue disease.

He called on local residents to use the “ all three long weekends in QC due to interim holidays should be maximized and utilized in initiating a clean-up drive that would prevent the escalation of dengue in different areas, saying the initiative would likewise thwart any potential victims’’.

The second district councilor noted the three long weekends or special holidays that can be taken advantage off for the proposed “dengue clean-up drive”. These include Eid’Ad Ha that will be celebrated from August 10 to 12, Quezon City Day from August 17 to 19 and the celebration of National Heroes Day from August 24 up to August 26.

“We should maximize these special holidays to inform and educate the people in the light DOH has declared nationwide dengue alert,’’ Castelo said.
