ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has reported that dengue fever cases are expected to decrease in November, thanks to current meteorological conditions and projected seasonal trends.
However, officials warn that the next two weeks are critical, as ongoing atmospheric factors continue to foster conditions conducive to the virus's spread.
In light of this situation, the PMD has called on all stakeholders, including national health agencies and dengue control centers, to implement preemptive measures to mitigate the disease's impact. They emphasized the importance of staying informed about the latest updates and guidelines, available on their official website: http://www.pmd.gov.pk.
Health experts urge the public to remain vigilant and take necessary precautions to prevent mosquito breeding, particularly during this crucial period. The PMD’s insights underscore the importance of collective action in effectively managing and controlling the dengue outbreak.
