1 trained volunteer = 50 protected households.
Somporn, 52, has been a Village Health Volunteer (VHV) for nearly 20 years — door-knocking, dengue surveillance, distributing health pamphlets, supporting municipal projects.
In 2026, his sub-district health office received 3 SOLO PORT423 units from the municipality. WHD sent a team to train Somporn and 18 VHV network members. After 1 day they were proficient — started spraying mosquitoes and disinfecting their own communities.
Rainy season result: Village 7 had the lowest dengue rate in the sub-district. The SAO mayor proudly awarded "Outstanding VHV".
No waiting for municipal teams — VHVs operate independently.
1 VHV = 50 households.
Community VHVs start spraying within 2 hours.
VHV compensation is low and value is high.
Ministry of Public Health endorses.
Residents trust VHVs — easier execution.
Trained VHVs become enduring local resources.
Municipality + SAO + sub-district + VHV work as one.
Single standard — trained once, deployable anywhere.
Free with government procurement orders.
"I've been a VHV 20 years, always door-knocking with pamphlets. In 2026 I trained on SOLO PORT423 in one day. Now I spray mosquitoes in my village myself. Village headman thanks me, residents trust me. Dengue in my village lowest in sub-district."
— Pi-Somporn, VHV Village 7, Buriram
"My sub-district has 24 VHVs across 6 villages. After WHD's 1-day training program, every village has a trained operator. Response time dropped from 2-3 days to a few hours."
— Sub-district health office director, Loei
VHVs are the municipality's largest community asset. A 1-day SOLO PORT423 training transforms field teams into a year-round response force. WHD provides free training with government procurement orders.
