Dengue is a seasonal disease in Laos, with cases typically rising during the rainy season from May to August, particularly in July and August. Changing weather patterns and irregular rainfall can also create favourable conditions for mosquito breeding.
Authorities are urging communities to intensify mosquito-control measures, including removing standing water and other potential breeding sites, to help curb further transmission.
