The regional director, Algis Torres, indicated that the intervention aims to strengthen public health actions and improve sanitary conditions in the community. He explained that the presence of rodents in different areas poses a health risk to residents. During the operation, the vector control team conducted inspections, placed baits, and fumigated strategic areas to reduce the proliferation of rodents and prevent diseases such as hantavirus.

He recommended depositing garbage in designated areas and setting it out during the established collection hours.
