Health minister: Drastic drop in dengue cases in Malaysia this year

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 7 — Dengue cases in all states have recorded a drop of between 20 and 94 per cent this year compared to last year, said Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba.

“The average weekly dengue cases reported so far is 534 cases a week, compared to 1,700 a week in 2020 and 2,500 a week in 2019. Dr Adham said although the country was struggling with Covid-19, the prevention and control of infectious diseases, including dengue, have not been neglected as such oversight would cause all gains made to be lost in an instant.
