SINGAPORE - At least one more person has died from dengue this year, bringing the total to 29 deaths by end-September, or more than the 28 people who have died from Covid-19 in Singapore.
When asked if there have been more dengue deaths since then, the Ministry of Health (MOH) declined to say, adding that death numbers are reported quarterly.
