As of the current report, there are seven dengue patients under medical care in various hospitals across Punjab, with one patient receiving treatment in Lahore. While the numbers indicate an ongoing concern, the absence of new reported cases in the past 24 hours suggests a potential slowdown in the spread of the disease.

Health authorities continue to monitor the situation closely, urging the public to remain vigilant in adopting preventive measures against dengue, such as eliminating mosquito breeding grounds and using protective measures like mosquito nets and repellents.
