 Residents in the south of the island will call on to play an important role in preventing the breathing of vectors and reducing the threat of vector-borne diseases. Medical Office of Health, Dr. Glensford Joseph says, despite environmental health professionals providing valuable information on vector control, it is also the responsibility of residents to participate in integrated measures to eradicate vectors. Vector control, while we use this opportunity to raise awareness with our engagement in the community, vector control is a daily activity. Each one of us need to play our part in controlling vectors. Each one of us, with the little contribution we make in our homes, in our immediate environment, our yards in the workplaces. Collectively, we can, as a country, reduce the population of vectors, more so mosquitoes and rodents, and as a result, reduce the incidence or the number of new cases of vector-borne diseases that we are having in St. Lucia. Assistant Chief Environmental Health Officer, Cheryl Eugene St. Rumin says, it is important that community members work together to eliminate vector-breeding grounds and protect themselves from vector-borne diseases. I want to continue telling people that we cannot do it alone. That is the Ministry of Health, Wellness, and Elderly Affairs. We need the residents together. We can do it. And as our theme went, some anude to them in Pupli Bonsate, so we need to engage each other. We need to support each other. And that's the only way we can eradicate these vectors. The Environmental Health Division encourages inclusions to continue taking proactive measures to combat the growth of the vector population.
