Coello calls for not creating an "unnecessary and unfounded social alarm"

Felipe Coello, Councilor for Sports and Health, has stated that it seems inexplicable that the PSOE criticizes the most advanced measures, which are applied with the best technology, to combat the tiger mosquito and calls for "demagogy to be left on matters as important as It is public health because they create an unnecessary and unfounded social alarm. "

There are numerous actions carried out by the City of Murcia against the tiger mosquito, which is why, due to the concern caused by this problem, the program of action due to the winter rains should be advanced by one month.

In addition, all the complaints received to date against this insect have been answered, providing solutions to prevent propagation by acting within 24 hours after receiving the notifications.

To combat the tiger mosquito you need drones and helicopters that serve to refer to foci that can only be objectifiable from the air.

Once this is done, these areas are treated, either from the air like the ramblas or from land, with the use of biologically environmentally sustainable means.

For this reason, Coello points out that "before making any statement on this issue, the Socialist Group should be informed about the actions taken by the City Council and the functions that each of them performs, such as the drones and the helicopter ".

From the Health Service, as repeated every year, citizen collaboration is requested to avoid the plague, since 80% of the outbreaks occur in private areas such as farms, houses with swimming pool, etc.

The Councilor for Sports and Health has stated that it "seems ridiculous that the Socialist Group question the measures we are using in the fight against the tiger mosquito that are the most cutting-edge and cutting edge in Spain against the spread of this insect."

All information is available to citizens on the web www.ayuntamientomurcia-salud.es In addition, with the collaboration of Aguas de Murcia will be distributed 160,000 leaflets inserted in the next bill of water that the residents of Murcia receive.
