Dengue fears surge as temperature starts to soar - Bangladesh


The fear of dengue is escalating among Dhaka residents as mercury starts to rise with the arrival of summer. 

Panic has set in since the beginning of the year, following reports of dengue cases in 2023, which shattered previous records for both cases and deaths related to dengue. Last year alone, a staggering 321,179 cases of dengue were recorded, accompanied by 1,705 deaths, marking the highest figures on record.
