Workers from Peru's Ministry of Health fumigate El Sauce cemetery in Lima after the country declared a "health emergency" in 13 departments due to a dengue outbreak. "It's important to attack the spread of this mosquito" explains Martin Ramos Hidalgo, a biologist at the Health Ministry, as workers search for larvae in bags of water under flowers left in the cemetery. Peru has, so far in 2023, recorded more than 11,500 cases of dengue and 16 deaths as a result of the disease. The numbers represent a 72% increase from the same period in 2022.
