ANGELES CITY – A simultaneous fumigation of all city government offices was undertaken Jan. 17 to protect employees and city hall goers from dengue.
Mayor Carmelo “Pogi” Lazatin, Jr. instructed the city anti-dengue task force comprising the city health office sanitation division and Angeles City Barangay Outreach to lead the fogging activities at the city hall and off-site offices in Pampang Public Market, Angeles City Reproductive Health and Wellness Center, and Angeles City Slaughterhouse.
“Kailangang matiyak na ligtas ang mga kawani ng gobyerno at mga pumupunta sa ating mga opisina laban sa dengue,” Lazatin said.
The mayor has also ordered the anti-dengue task force to fumigate the city’s 55 public schools to lessen or even eliminate the risk of dengue cases to public school students and teachers.
Executive Assistant IV Reina Manuel supervised the said operation together with Angeles City Economic Development Investment Promotions Office chief Irish Bonus-Llego.
Fumigation is among of the priorities of Mayor Lazatin to prevent the spread of dengue in Angeles City since he took office in 2019. Before the start of the academic year 2024-2025, Mayor Lazatin also ordered the fumigation in all public schools in the city to protect students and teachers against dengue. Angeles CIO
