I have a coworker who lived on Maui when dengue broke out there, she said the county was giving away mosquito repellant, coils and netting at all the "major" intersections, fire stations, community meetings, school events and almost anywhere people gathered. From the very first case there was a big push to reach people with the stuff and information they needed to stay safe and to prevent the spread of the virus through their community. That was the best technology and information available at the time and the county ran with it.
