Free dengue testing has been arranged at 13 more health centers under Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) to identify dengue fever patients.

A total of 40 health centers and urban maternity hospitals in the DNCC area will be able to test for dengue for free. The tests are: NS1, IgG and IgM.

Free dengue tests can be done at all these maternity homes and health centers every day except Friday from 9 am to 2 pm.
