Proper awareness of these diseases,prevention and precaution should be well known by each and every people. Apart from awareness more hospitals should be opened in rural areas because these types of diseases are mostly seen in rural areas also cheap and easy medicines should be provided to all.

We should bring health education in schools. Schools should organize seminars/quiz competitions to educate children and which in turn help ordinary citizens. Educating people should be theme of any such events. above suggestions related to education about viral diseases.
All such test should be made free of cost for all and should be available for each citizens and not mere in some of the hospitals. Medicines should be made available on all stores not just to some of the stores.

I think, educating the common people about the cause and prevention can help the most. We can start in schools where we will gather parents on a day to understand the same. Its important that they understand that spreading the knowledge acquired can save a life.

The agent that causes vector borne diseases are mainly mosqitoes , diseases like malaria,dengue etc are caused by female anopheles and female ades mosquito,tgere are many places which are in favour for thr breeding of mosquitoes like water collected in ditches,pot holes etc the breeding of mosquito can be controlled by spraying kersone oil on the water surfaces which cuts off the oxygen for which the larvae of mosquitto dies or preventing the accumulation of water.

Reducing the areas where vectors can easily breed can help limit population growth.
The use of natural vector predators, such as bacterial toxins or botanical compounds, can help control vector populations.
The use of pesticides for is promoted by the World Health Organization (WHO) and has proven to be highly effective vector control.
Limiting exposure to insects or animals that are known disease vectors can reduce infection risks significantly.

Sir/ Madam,

In crowded public places there should be sensor fitted doors and wash basins, because with everybody touching door handles and wash basin the chances of infection are more.

In schools although toilets have been constructed but in absence of running water and lack of cleaning staff, same becomes unusable and many times these places becomes result in spread of infection. So for such toilets may be fruitful when availability of running water is there. Thanks.
