causal chain of the problem mosquito AEDES

causal chain of the problem mosquito AEDES

1. garbage collection

   • municipal resources are not enough to schedule garbage collection days
   • people throw trash improperly into public spaces
   • stay and time of reproduction and incubation of the Aedes mosquito in metallic waste, plastics, glass or non-biodegradable materials
   • misinformation in the population about this virus
   • Inadequate behaviors in the prevention of Aedes aegypti vector

2. effects and factors in geo-politics

   • The municipality of Timaná is framed with geographic coordinates of 1 ° 58 'north latitude and 75 ° 56' west longitude
     • there are areas with stagnant water that belong to the upper parts and in whose lower part the urban area of ​​the municipality is located
       • increased mosquito proliferation due to water tributaries
         • You will be given a stay and time of reproduction and incubation of the Aedes mosquito in these metallic waste, plastics, glass or non-biodegradable materials, where approximately 150 years is the time it takes to degrade

3. affects the environment

   • the impact in time that generated these residues when exposed to environments and media where they have contact with water, are latent to this Aedes mosquito vector reproduces
     • Zika virus, dengue virus, chikungunya virus and yellow fever virus can be present in any container that accumulates water
       • The presence of these mosquitoes causes these diseases to spread in the populations, increasing the contagion and the risk of spreading this virus throughout the community.

4. effects on the health
