The number of dengue cases reported so far this year has exceeded 50,000, said Dr. Prasila Samaraweera, a community physician at the National Dengue Eradication Unit.

She noted that 50,459 dengue cases and 30 deaths have been reported so far.

Pointing out that this number could increase further, the doctor said that there has been no decrease in the density of mosquitoes, so it is very important to clean our surroundings regularly.

Pointing out that dengue disease could increase further due to public activities during the long weekends, the doctor said that people should use this weekend to clean their homes and surroundings.

It is important for us to keep our country, our country clean, which will help reduce this disease. So, please be careful with this. If a person has a fever for more than two days, he should consult a qualified doctor to find out whether he has dengue or not. "It is necessary to go to the hospital immediately and get a blood test to diagnose it. Until dengue is suspected and confirmed, only paracetamol-type drugs should be taken. We request you to pay special attention to this to reduce fever," he said.
