Dengue Fever, West Nile Virus and malaria have to develope in the body of the Vector ( our mosquito). Most authorities seem to agree that if a mosquito that has taken a blood meal from a carrier (an infected bird, human etc) needs at least 9 days before it can transmit the virus to a new host.
We in North America have to get Dengue the old fashion way. Infected host via the Vector (mosquito) to new host. In most cases the first bout with this visus can be Flu like symptoms. Unfortunately the second bout with Dengue Fever is not as forgiving as the first.
