Dear Colleagues and Students,

As of recent inspections conducted by the Health Bureau in conjunction with the Office of Health, Safety and Environmental Affairs as well as Campus Services Section, stagnant water was found in different areas on campus, especially potted plants privately owned by staff and students in outdoor areas.  We would like to draw the attention of all UM members on this issue, kindly pay special attention to avoid retaining water in potted plants.  Please ensure to change regularly the water or remove any stagnant water from any plants, and brush the interior walls of the containers to eliminate mosquito breeding.

For more details regarding dengue fever, please refer to the eBulletin issued earlier. Thank you for your cooperation.

Office of Health, Safety and Environmental Affairs
