How many dengue cases were reported in Afghanistan in 2025?

Reviewed by Famidi editorial team
Direct answer

WHO’s 2026 appeal cites 6,010 dengue fever cases detected in Afghanistan in 2025.

What the figure or term means

Detection depends on surveillance, testing, and care-seeking.

A national annual total does not show where transmission was concentrated.

Climate, vectors, mobility, and health-system capacity affect risk.

Check later situation reports before calling this the latest count.

How to use this information responsibly

Current sources show how restrictions, funding cuts, disease, malnutrition, and access barriers overlap, especially for women and children.

National figures should not be used to diagnose an individual, predict one child’s future, or flatten the experiences of all Afghan women and families.
