Dengue fighting squads rejoice at sharp drop in cases

By Joshua Surendraraj

Dengue cases have declined sharply this month compared to the corresponding period in the past six years, much to the relief of health officials who claim the drop is due to the success of mosquito control methods adopted by the Health Ministry.
In addition, statistics released by the Epidemiology Unit of the Ministry indicate a drop in the total number of dengue cases reported during these past few months, making it the lowest number of cases reported since 2011 for this period.


Health officials say awareness programmes and cleaning up operations of mosquito-breeding spots like these have been successful in bringing down the number of dengue cases. Pic by Nilan Maligaspe

Officials acknowledged the weather could have made a difference.
...
The number of deaths due to dengue has also reduced to 32 from the 67 reported last year, Dr. Palihawadana said.
