Nag-record ng 14,907 dengue cases ang DOH hanggang Pebrero 14

Nag-ulat ang Department of Health ng 14,907 kaso ng dengue hanggang Pebrero 14, na 70 porsiyento mas mababa kaysa sa parehong panahon noong nakaraang taon. Ayon sa mga opisyal, ang pagbaba ay dahil sa mas malakas na mga hakbang sa pag-iwas at maagang konsultasyon. Gayunpaman, hinikayat nila ang publiko na manatiling maingat dahil maaaring tumaas ang mga kaso.

Sa pahayag noong Pebrero 27, 2026, nag-ulat ang Department of Health (DOH) ng 14,907 dengue cases hanggang Pebrero 14. Ito ay 70 porsiyento mas mababa kumpara sa parehong panahon noong nakaraang taon, ayon sa Health Undersecretary Gloria Balboa.

Sa "End Dengue Coalition" event ng Philippine Medical Association (PMA) sa Quezon City, sinabi ni Balboa na ang pagbaba ay resulta ng mas malakas na mga hakbang sa pag-iwas, maagang konsultasyon, surveillance, at clinical management. Hinikayat niya ang publiko na manatiling maingat dahil maaaring tumaas ang mga kaso ng dengue.

"Dengue is all-year round, but has its peak cycles that include the July to October period," sabi ni Eric Tayag, dating health undersecretary at miyembro ng PMA ad hoc committee on dengue advocacy. Batay sa data ng DOH, 45 porsiyento ng dengue cases noong 2025 ay naitala mula Hulyo hanggang Oktubre, ayon kay Tayag.

Si Lulu Bravo, isa pang miyembro ng komite, ay nagdiin ng pangangailangan para sa mga bagong interbensyon tulad ng bakuna upang maiwasan ang dengue. Matapos ang kontrobersya ng Dengvaxia vaccine noong 2015, wala pa ring malawakang available na dengue vaccine na naaprubahan ng Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sa bansa. Ang second-generation dengue vaccine na Qdenga ng Japan-based Takeda Pharmaceuticals, bagamat sumunod sa mga kinakailangan ng FDA, ay nasa ilalim pa rin ng review.
