Why Goa's 70% drop in pre-monsoon dengue cases is no reason to let our guard down, and now is the time to eliminate breeding grounds As the monsoon clouds roll over Goa, they carry not only the scent of rain but also the threat of dengue. Transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes, dengue fever can escalate into a potentially life-threatening illness, especially upon reinfection due to a phenomenon known as antibody-dependent enhancement.
Here's the encouraging development: Goa has recorded a 70% drop in pre-monsoon dengue cases in 2025. According to the Directorate of Health Services, the state logged just 33 cases between January and May, compared to 117 during the same period in 2024 (Navhind Times, June 25, 2025). This remarkable decline is the result of proactive measures: stricter enforcement of water storage rules, door-to-door inspections, and heightened public awareness.
