Vietnam has made great progress in controlling dengue fever in recent years, but the journey towards complete elimination of dengue fever remains challenging.
Climate change, rapid urbanization and poor sanitation of infrastructure have created conditions for the disease to persist.
In addition to continuing to raise awareness of the disease as well as improving the disease surveillance system, strengthening vector control measures, etc., efforts to promote community participation in preventing dengue fever are important.
