Giyera Kontra Dengue 🦟🧂
Giyera Kontra Dengue continues!
Kap Aimie Cabato and Kagawad Hji Jeng Ismael attended the Flag Ceremony at City Hall this morning together with fellow Barangay Officials.
City In-Charge Vice Mayor Beng Climaco led the Flag Raising Ceremony. During the ceremony, Secretary to the Mayor Celso Lobregat and City Health Officer Dra. Dulce Miravite provided an update on the current dengue situation in Zamboanga City and presented the latest dengue data as of August 8, 2026. Raw salt was also distributed as one of the alternative measures being promoted to help eliminate mosquito breeding sites.
We are proud to share that Barangay Baliwasan is no longer among the Top 20 barangays with the highest number of dengue cases, based on City Health Office data.
This is a result of our continuous and collective efforts to eliminate dengue breeding sites and strengthen information and dissemination activities in our community.
Our heartfelt thanks to the Baliwasan Health Personnel, Barangay Officials, Employees, Purok Leaders, Volunteers, and our constituents who continue to take part in this fight.
🦟 Search and Destroy.
🧹 Clean our surroundings.
