Gujarat has recorded a substantial reduction in vector-borne diseases in 2026, with malaria cases dropping by 45% and dengue by 39% compared to previous years.
The state's targeted health campaign, which focused on mosquito control and public awareness, has been credited for the improved health outcomes across major districts.
Despite the decline, health officials continue to monitor the situation, reporting 788 dengue and 80 chikungunya cases as of the third week of August 2026.
