Abstract

  Communicable diseases are on an increase and technical solutions alone cannot ensure the effective control and prevention of communicable diseases. Hence, strategies to mobilize all levels of society are also essential. Healthcare is shifting towards person-centered care and patient empowerment. Along with patient empowerment, medical education is shifting towards professional roles for students in patient care. Hence, Medical students can play a vital role in prevention of dengue. It basically focuses on IEC i.e. Information, Education and Communication to spread awareness and raise the knowledge levels in the community and involve the community in the elimination of mosquito breeding sites.
