As of May 15, over 600 dengue cases have been reported this year – 66 per cent less than the same period last year, and significantly lower than the same period in 2024 and 2025.
Last year, more than 4,000 cases were reported in total, down 70 per cent from 13,651 cases in 2024. This represents the lowest annual total since 2018.
“Since 2023, the mid-year surge in dengue cases was largely subdued due to strong and sustained community vigilance against breeding and mosquito suppression efforts under Project Wolbachia,” said NEA.
