Disaster Overview : Sudan is currently experiencing a severe outbreak of dengue fever, which started in August 2019. The disease has spread across seven states, including Kassala, West Darfur, and North Darfur. This outbreak is particularly challenging due to simultaneous outbreaks of other diseases such as chikungunya, rift valley fever, malaria, and cholera. The outbreak has stretched the nation's already weakened public health system, which has been compromised by years of political and civil conflicts.
