What else can I help you with?
Are you immune to dengue fever if you have had it once?
The short answer is: Yes, and often the 2nd time around the dengue will be more severe. The long answer is: There are 4 general types of dengue fever - these are called serotypes. Once 1 serotype of dengue has been contracted, limited immunity to this serotype is generated. However, if a person who has contracted dengue once, gets re-infected with a different serotype, this will often increase the severity of the disease and increase the chances of developing the much much more severe dengue hemorrhagic fever. Also, dengue is notorious for being generally more severe in children.

How long are you immune to dengue once infection 1st time is cleared?
After a primary dengue infection, immunity typically lasts for several months to a few years, but it is not lifelong. While the body develops antibodies that provide some protection against the same serotype of the virus, this immunity does not extend to other dengue serotypes. Subsequent infections with different serotypes can lead to more severe forms of the disease, such as dengue hemorrhagic fever. Therefore, it is important to remain cautious even after recovering from a primary infection.
Is dengue a bacterial disease?
No, dengue is not a bacterial disease; it is a viral infection caused by the dengue virus, which is transmitted primarily by Aedes mosquitoes. The disease can lead to symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, joint and muscle pain, and rash. There are four serotypes of the dengue virus, and infection with one serotype generally provides immunity only to that specific serotype, not to the others.

Can a person infected with dengue be a lifetime carrier?
No, a person infected with dengue cannot be a lifetime carrier of the virus. While dengue can cause severe illness and complications during an infection, the immune system typically clears the virus from the body. However, infection with one of the four dengue virus serotypes provides lifelong immunity to that specific serotype, but not to the others, meaning a person can still be infected again by different serotypes.
