The rainy season may bring a welcome break from the scorching summer, but it also comes with its own set of challenges that affect daily life and health. Heavier rains often lead to worsening traffic, which makes commuting more difficult. The cooler weather also marks the start of flu season, putting more people at risk of common illnesses. Most concerning of all, dengue cases rise sharply during this time, as mosquito populations increase and spread the virus more easily.
Dengue Risk Throughout the Year
Peak season for dengue infection is reported to be from June to November each year. That’s because dengue-carrying mosquitoes, like Aedes aegypti, tend to have higher populations during the rainy season. However, due to the potential for year-round transmission, dengue has become an ongoing threat, even outside of the peak months.
The Department of Health recently reported that in January and February 2025, dengue infection rose as much as 40% compared to the same period last year. The dengue scare is very real and because it can be transmitted, it is a public health concern across the country.
