"Sometimes people hear the word dengue and think it's nothing - but it can leave you very sick, or even kill you." Today is World Dengue Day. Meet Alicia, who survived dengue in Peru and now helps her community in Comas understand and accept the Wolbachia method. Stories like hers are why community engagement sits at the heart of how WMP works with governments to bring Wolbachia to scale. We're sharing more this week at the Asia Dengue Summit - the team is there all week. #WorldDengueDay #Dengue #Wolbachia

1/2 The mosquito doesn't waste any time - it finds the perfect place to lay its eggs." In the hills of Comas, Peru, community leader Carmen Luz Estrella Paz turned dengue prevention into her mission, moving her neighbours from doubt to belief in the Wolbachia method. Her conviction is simple: "Wolbachia is important - it will save lives." This is the community leadership that makes public health work at scale. Next Monday, 15 June, is World Dengue Day - we'll be sharing more stories like Carmen's through the week, so keep an eye out. #WorldDengueDay #Dengue #Wolbachia #PublicHealth #Peru

In our film Releasing Hope, the spectre is a mosquito swarm built from real community testimony. People described dengue as living "in the shadow of something." What did it make you feel? #releasinghope
