Eleven more people have died of dengue in Bangladesh over the past 24 hours, according to the Directorate General of Health Services, bringing this year's toll to 400, including 155 in October. Another 2,071 patients were admitted to hospitals in the same period, with Dhaka Division recording the most at 899. The directorate said 128,237 patients have been hospitalised so far this year, of whom 121,422 have recovered and been discharged. Reports cite 2023 as the worst year, with 1,705 deaths, and say dengue killed more than 400 people in 2025. The directorate has recorded hospitalisations and deaths since 2000.

About this method

Method. Bias types follow the Table of Media Bias Elements and the Media Bias Taxonomy (both CC BY 4.0). The impartiality rules follow the BBC Editorial Guidelines and the Ofcom Broadcasting Code. The score is calculated from the seven answers, never generated.

What this is not. No outlet gets a standing bias rating, and there is no left/right axis, because that axis does not describe Bangladeshi politics. Each analysis covers one article about one event. Members' analytics count how each outlet's headlines were labelled over a chosen period, with the number of headlines behind every share, and also show the average score of an outlet's scored articles: that average describes those articles (mostly each story's lead), not the outlet, and outlets are never ranked by it or by any share.

Known limits. Headlines are grouped into stories automatically, so an unrelated headline sometimes slips in; it is shown faded rather than hidden. Where outlets carry the same wire copy, the comparison has little to show. Human annotators agree on bias in Bangla news only moderately (κ = 0.574 at best), which limits what any automated score can claim.
