Malaysia Faces Dengue Surge
Malaysia is experiencing a sharp rise in dengue fever cases since August, with the total reaching 58,079 cases and 55 deaths. This represents a 56.2% increase compared to the same period in 2025, with notable rises in Kuala Lumpur and the state of Selangor. The main reason is attributed to unexpected weather conditions, particularly heavy rainfall and hot temperatures, which promote the breeding of the mosquito that transmits the disease. The ministry has launched intensive prevention and surveillance measures, along with warnings about the increased risk of spread due to the severity of the situation and the absence of an effective vaccine. The health threat continues from the virus, which causes symptoms such as high fever, headache, rash, and body aches.
