These figures come weeks after the weeks-long rainfall in July.
In its report, the Department of Health (DOH) reported that they have seen a slight increase in dengue cases in the country.
According to their tally from July 13 to 26, 2025, during the weeks when the tropical cyclones Crising, Dante, and Emong brought rains and flooding, the recorded cases in the Philippines went up to 15,091.
It was 7% higher than the number of patients from June 29 to July 12, 2025, when it was at 14,131
“Nananatili namang naka-alerto ang DOH sa mga kaso ng dengue sa bansa, at nananatiling aktibo ang mga dengue fastlanes sa mga DOH hospitals,” the DOH said in its press statement.
The health authority also advised the public to make use of the dry period to clean up areas like pots, rainpipes, gutters, and manholes where mosquitoes carrying the disease, specifically aedes aegypti, might breed.
Those experiencing fever for two days and are still experiencing symptons like rashes, body pain, dizziness, and vomiting are told to immediately seek consultation in their nearest health center or head to hospitals, with the DOH hospitals already having dedicated dengue fast lanes.
Meanwhile, the leptospirosis incidence had already gone down, with the Health department reporting that they are only logging 10 daily cases from August 10 to 14, 2025—significantly lower than the almost 200 cases daily from August 3 to 9, 2025.
Since the declaration of the rainy season, the DOH said that it had recorded a total of 3,752 leptospirosis cases from June 8 until August 14.
Despite the lower cases, the agency said that the leptospirosis fast lanes in 49 hospitals are still activated and advised those that were exposed to floodwater or mud to consult and have themselves assessed for their risk level and appropriate medication.
Some of the common symptoms of leptospirosis are fever, headache, chills, back or leg pain, and red eyes.
