As Christmas season is almost approaching, heavy downpours are most likely to occur. Although the benefits we get are unquestionable, some disadvantages are obvious as well, which include flood and insect-related diseases.
Whether newspaper, television or radio; we often hear victims inflicted with various diseases as a result of heavy rainfall. While some are controllable, other cases are fatal, which may lead to epidemic situation. Such prevalence may cause recurrence and the worst scenario is mutation of more serious form of strain that can sometimes be unmanageable. New set of signs and symptoms develop, which are often rare and difficult to detect. Just like the symptoms of Lyme Disease, which can be serious when left unnoticed over a period of time.
Therefore, being cautious at all times is the most effective way of preventing an illness. Do not wait for something to happen before any further step is taken. Put emphasis on cleanliness since getting rid of potential carriers is the simplest safety measure one can ever contribute.
