The Houston Health Department Newsletter
July 19, 2024 We welcome your feedback at hhdcommunications@houstontx.gov The Houston Health Department (HHD) works in partnership with the community to promote and protect the health and social well-being of Houstonians and the environment in which they live. HHD is a full-service health department that not only performs all core functions of a Public Health Department but also many enhanced functions including initiatives to address health inequities. HHD services
benefit all Houston residents but the department also takes additional steps to support those most in need, such as low-income mothers and children, the elderly and minority populations. Most HHD functions serve the 2.3 million residents of the City of Houston but the scope and impact extends into Harris County’s population of 4.7 million people through the department’s Area Aging on Aging, Bureau of Youth and Adolescent Health, Project Saving Smiles, See to Succeed, immunization strategies, syndromic surveillance and HIV-STD surveillance. HHD’s laboratory also services a 17-county region.

After millions of Houstonians lost their power due to Hurricane Beryl, many fired up their generators to power their electricity and various appliances inside their homes.

This rainy season has made plenty of outdoor elements an ideal location for mosquitoes to thrive. The heat and standing water in flowerpots, furniture, pools, toys, and more invite mosquitoes to gather and lay eggs. Though the relentlessly itchy, small bump that results from a mosquito bite is bad enough, the truth is mosquitoes can also carry life-threatening illnesses that can transfer to humans from their bite.Some mosquito species present in Harris County can carry viruses such as West Nile Virus, St. Louis Encephalitis, Dengue, Zika and more, and severe cases can lead to serious illness or death if left untreated.
