TOKYO Cheap Men's Air Max 97 OG GS All White , Sept. 2 (Xinhua) -- As Tokyo finds itself in the grip of the worst domestic outbreak of dengue fever since the World War II, with at least 22 people being confirmed infected by the mosquito- borne virus, the Tokyo government on Tuesday began trapping mosquitoes in Yoyogi Park, a hotbed for the virus-carrying mosquitoes in central Tokyo, to try and deduce their numbers and formulate an action plan.


The health ministry here has confirmed that all 22 people currently confirmed with having been infected with dengue fever, including two Japanese celebrities, all contracted the virus at Yoyogi Park through transmissions with dengue fever virus-carrying mosquitoes.


The hugely popular Yoyogi Park, which lies adjacent to the Meiji Shrine Cheap Men's Air Max 97 All White , which along with the park is also a particularly popular site for both tourist and locals alike in the metropolis, is noticeably devoid of the usual revelers throwing frisbees, families having picnics, couples walking dogs as well as those just lying in the grass enjoying the congenial weather at the end of summer, observers said Tuesday.


Mariko Maeda, mother of two, said she wasn't overly concerned, but decided not to walk her youngest child through the park as usual after play school on their way home.


"We usually cut through the park to get home after school and I let Midori Cheap Men's Air Max 97 OG GS Silver White Red , 4, play with her friends in the fountains and in the woods," Maeda said. "But not today. The place looks like one big science experiment."


When asked how long she and her daughter would avoid the park for Maeda, who also has a 6 year old boy said, "This park is one of the reasons we moved to this area. There aren't many open spaces for children to play in Tokyo, so I'm really hoping the government deal with this problem swiftly and report to us all the relevant information, in a timely manner."


"If this happens, and the government says the park is all clear of virus-carrying mosquitoes Cheap Men's Air Max 97 OG GS Army Green Black , I'll return to the park with my children," said Maeda.


Maeda said she could see the park had been marked clearly with new signs warning those in the park to wear long sleeves and pants, avoid showing skin, avoid wearing sandals or being bare footed and to use bug spray or insect repellent when needed.


"This isn't the kind of environment you'd feeling happy allowing your children to play in, now is it?" she said.


The government is particularly concerned about the pace of the latest outbreak and health ministry official are concerned that of the official cases reported, many more may have gone unreported as the symptoms of the virus can manifest differently in different people.


The last official outbreak of dengue fever was recorded in Japan in 1945 and the Tokyo metropolitan government having already sprayed the park with insecticide in a bid to kill the virus- carrying mosquitoes, is grappling to contain the problem from developing into a far larger epidemic, an official from the local government said Tuesday.


In a bid to gain more of an understanding of the severity and spread of this mosquito-borne tropical disease Cheap Men's Air Max 97 OG GS All Black , officials today set up mosquito traps in 10 different locations in Yoyogi Park.


The traps are designed to lure the mosquitoes in by using a combination of natural light and dry ice, which releases carbon dioxide aided by a simple fan. The mosquitoes caught in the traps will then be counted and analyzed at laboratories on Wednesday, Tokyo officials said.


In addition, the officials said the park's fountains, lakes and ponds will also be drained as the water sources could be potential breeding grounds for the tropical disease-carrying mosquitoes.


The move follows local officials, who were somewhat flummoxed when earlier on in the outbreak, they trapped 35 mosquitoes using the same technique on Aug. 26, but found the following morning that none of the mosquitoes were carrying the potentially deadly virus.


Health Cheap Men's Air Max 97 All Black , Labor and Welfare Minister Norihisa Tamura said at a news conference Tuesday, contrary to other officials, that he does not anticipate the infections spreading rapidly. He proffered that, "dengue fever may become active in people in which it has been latent until now."


"The virus is present at a certain level in the world, and Japan's situation in this respect has not changed dramatically. Rather than explosively spreading, infections will come and go, and I ask that people remain calm," said Tamura.


The health ministry said Tuesday that of those bitten by a dengue fever virus-carrying mosquito Cheap Men's Air Max 97 Ultra Triple Black Shoes , only between 10 and 50 percent of those will become symptomatic with dengue fever related traits, and, only 1 to 5 percent of those will experience serious complications connected to having contracted the virus.


Such traits and symptoms, according to the health ministry here, include fever, headache, muscle and joint pains, and Cheap Men's Air Max 97 Silver Grey Red , most tellingly according to health officials, a characteristic skin rash.


In some rare cases, the disease rapidly develops into the life- threatening dengue hemorrhagic fever, which results in heavy bleeding, low levels of blood platelets and blood plasma leakage.


Due to the large volumes of blood loss and dangerously low blood pressure, this can lead to what's known as dengue shock syndrome, characterized by acute abdominal pain, hemorrhaging Cheap Air Max 97 Summit White Shoes , circulatory collapse and, in some cases, death.


The disease is prevalent in more than 100 countries across Asia, Africa and Latin America, and in Malaysia alone, at least 87 people died from dengue fever this year. An epidemic in India last year killed more than 100 people and saw hospitals overrun with dengue fever infected patients.


The spread of the disease in Tokyo has been aided by an unseasonably warm and wet summer, authorities on the matter said Tuesday, but added the outbreak may run its course naturally when the cooler weather begins.
