Playa del Carmen’s Dengue Fight: Schedule & Tips

Playa del Carmen, Mexico — As part of a strategy to reinforce the campaign against disease-carrying mosquitoes, the Municipal Secretary of Health, José Antonio Uribe Trujillo, announced the deployment and reinforcement of nebulization and debris-removal brigades in neighborhoods and subdivisions across the city, with the support of the Secretariat of Public Services.

“These preventive actions are fundamental to caring for our families. Health is a right, and together, citizens and government, we can guarantee a safer environment,” the official emphasized.
