Dengue Roundtable

Only a month into 2016 and we have seen more than 10,000 dengue cases that resulted in at least 23 deaths. Is there a new dengue strain? Will the El Nino make the outbreak worse? What about the dengue vaccine? These questions and more were explored during this panel discussion with Prof Emeritus Dr Lam Sai Kit, Asia Pacific Steering Committee for Dengue Vaccine to Vaccination Programme; Dr Milton Lum, Obstetrician and Gynaecologist and Columnist; and Datuk Dr Zulkifli Ismail, President of Asia Pacific Paediatric Association.
