India Reports Rising Dengue Cases; Prevention and Vaccination Measures Highlighted
India faces a growing dengue threat, with over 1,21,800 cases reported in 2025, driven by the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Prevention involves eliminating breeding sites, using repellents, and physical barriers. Severe dengue can develop as fever subsides, requiring close monitoring. The recently introduced Qdenga vaccine offers about 83% protection for ages 4 to 60 but is not suitable for pregnant women or immunocompromised individuals. Experts emphasize that vaccination complements, not replaces, mosquito control measures.
