We have 600,000 files, 50,000 posters, 10,000 banners, in addition to banners that we will distribute to all municipalities. We also created a technical memorandum guiding municipalities to achieve D-Day. We started this distribution since the eighth of November with the municipalities.β
Mauro also stresses that educational materials are very important for the implementation of the campaign against dengue fever, Zika virus and chikungunya. βIt is important because it helps raise awareness and raise awareness of the population, it serves as a warning to show the dangers that these diseases can cause. We hope that by handing over these materials, the municipalities will help us work together, and convey the message of prevention and warning to all residents.β
