Muscat: The Ministry of Health will conduct a three-month comprehensive survey of disease vectors, with effect from October 16, 2022.

The survey seeks to enhance and protect individuals and society against the spread of agent-based transfer of diseases. It will build a database on disease vectors, their areas of breeding and ways of detecting them and eradicate them.

The survey will cover all governorates of Oman, including areas frequented by tourists, workplaces and any other places where human activity is common.
