AS ASEAN Dengue Day will fall on Sept 24, Allied Against Dengue (AAD, Bersama Melawan Denggi) has embarked on the Walk & Clean campaign at nine identified dengue outbreak areas across the nation in a united effort to reduce dengue outbreaks in Malaysia.

The campaign was deployed in four states that have shown an increase in dengue cases, namely Penang (1,977), Perak (2,490), Sarawak (1,791) and Selangor (35,555), which recorded with the highest dengue cases to-date.
