Dengue Surge: Bangladesh is stepping up a three-month nationwide cleanliness and public awareness drive starting Sept 12 to curb dengue, with weekly door-to-door teams to remove Aedes breeding sites, free dengue testing in public hospitals, and reserved bed support in private facilities. Hospital Strain: The outbreak is already overwhelming care—reports cite record admissions (including 334 hospitalised in 24 hours in Khulna) and rising deaths, with health officials warning the peak may come in late September or early October. Measles Crisis: A Reuters report says Bangladesh is facing the world’s worst measles outbreak on record, with missed routine immunisation and vaccine supply disruptions linked to the spread; hospitals are overcrowded and children are arriving in large numbers. Eye Care for Refugees: Qatar Red Crescent Society, with BDRCS, launched a four-month ophthalmology project in Cox’s Bazar for Rohingya and host communities, including free eyeglasses, medicines, and referrals plus funding for 400 cataract surgeries. Health Workforce Push: The government says it is modernising nursing and midwifery education and training, while another report highlights major staffing vacancies that are disrupting routine district and upazila services. Air Pollution Alert: Dhaka ranks among the world’s most polluted cities, with “unhealthy” air quality readings raising respiratory risk. Food Safety: The Food Minister says BFSA will take immediate action if tests find public health risks in food products.
