THE Western Division has recorded the highest number of dengue cases this year says Health Ministry spokesman Peni Namotu.

There have so far been 30 recorded cases from the Balevuto Health Centre in Ba.

"This high number can be attributed to the rainy weather that was experienced recently. However, we are thankful there have not been any fatalities. This is not an outbreak as it is quite normal considering the weather we have been experiencing," he said.

There are 59 confirmed cases around the country for this year with the Macuata Province reporting a recent increase with 18 new cases.
