In early 2021, an outbreak of dengue fever was reported in Somali State and the Dollo zone was considered the highest risk area. However, as far as cases in the town of Werder from December 10, 2020 to January 4, 2021 were concerned, the number of infected persons was 334 out of 100,000, with a fatality rate of zero. In June 2021, the Dollo zone was damaged by a large outbreak of desert locusts. In March 2023, about 100,000 Somalis fled to the Dollo zone to escape the conflict in Las Anod in Sool region. They were mostly women and children. Refugees are being received in Boh, Galhamur, and Danot.
