What happened

In response to the recent dengue fever outbreak in Fano, particularly in Centinarola, new potential cases have emerged in other city areas. To curb the virus’s spread, the municipal administration has decreed three nighttime disinfestations to target the tiger mosquito (Aedes albopictus) within the urban vicinity. Enhancing intervention management and providing prompt assistance to residents, the Municipal Operational Center (C.O.C.) has been established, working in conjunction with the Civil Protection.
