Chad's Ministry of Higher Education has issued new measures to prevent dengue and limit its spread across universities and other departmental facilities. Minister Dr Sitack Yombatina informed officials at several administrative levels through a circular published on 20 October 2026. The directive covers all establishments and structures under the ministry. It calls on administrators to strengthen prevention and control work. The decision comes as dengue is worsening in several areas, though the notice did not identify them. The available excerpt did not provide case totals or list the individual protocols and measures.
