What percent of people with dengue fever die?
i know for a fact that the death rate is you will die within 4 hours of having dengue fever Dengue fever is not fatal. The complication dengue haemorrhagic fever however is extremely serious and if not treated by experienced medical professionals has a survival rate of 1%. The above statement "4 hour statement" is ludicrous and dangerous, it should be removed. Dengue is a virus carried by a certain mosquito. Depending upon where in the world, largely due to available medical care the fatality rate is at worst, 5% and usually less than 1%. It is a painful disease often called "breakbone fever." The elderly and the very young (infants) are most likely to die, almost all between the age of 15 and 60, unless immune-compromised (due to leukemia treatment, Aids, etc.) will recover. In most places in the world the survival rate is greater than 99%.

Why there is bradycardia in dengue?
It is known that dengue fever can affect the heart in several ways, including weakened force and speed of contraction and slowed pulse rate. Along with some other febrile illnesses ( illnesses with fever) dengue may demonstrate "relative bradyardia", that is, heart rate lower than would be expected for a given level of fever. The mechanism is not clear but may be mediated through the immune system or may be related to an inflammation of the heart. The presence of a relatively slow heart rate in the presence of a high fever is not diagnostic for dengue but indicates the need for testing for dengue, or if testing is not available is probably sufficient indication to treat for dengue. Finally, in the terminal stages of many conditions, including severe hemorrhagic dengue fever, massive loss of fluids out of the circulatory system into the tissues may result from damage to the capillaries (the smallest blood vessels). In these circumstances the body may not be able to compensate for the low circulating volume and blood flow to the vital organs, including the brain and the heart itself may be diminished to critical levels resulting in slowing of the heart, usually as a precursor to death. This cause of bradycardia is more properly regarded as part of the complex process known as "shock" rather than as a symptom of any specific disease.

What type of viruses can kill you?
Most likely lytic viruses can kill cells and the infected organism. HIV virus is a killer as is, Novel Coronavirus, Dengue fever, Marburg, Ebola, Yellow Fever. These could be made into bioweapons as they have no cure. If so these would overwhelm the health system and most would die. Some of these have close to a 100% death rate even with treatment.
What body parts affected by dengue?
Once a person has been bitten by an infected mosquito, it usually takes about a week before the symptoms of Dengue fever begin to appear. Chills, headache and extreme pain, especially in the lower back, can develop within hours. The temperature rises at a rapid rate and accompanied by a low heart rate, the patient is often rushed to the emergency room. The eyes become red and a pink rash appears on the rash. The effects of dengue fever usually dissipate after two days when the temperature drops just as suddenly as it rose. The patient starts to feel well, but the disease will reappear after another day or so. In this second onslaught, the rash spreads over the entire body. The palms of the hands and the soles of the feet can become swollen, red and very sore. This will last for about a week. There is no treatment specifically for dengue fever. The patient is treated with pain medication to make him/her more comfortable. It is important to drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration and to get lots of rest. Dengue fever in children can be more dangerous. Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever is a condition that causes severe abdominal pain, haemorrhaging and the collapse of the circulatory system. It starts in the same way as regular dengue fever - with a headache and fever, but it also has the symptoms of a flu, with a cough and sore throat, along with abdominal pain. Shock can occur within two to six days of the onset of this illness. Bruising is evident on the skin if bleeding occurs and the patient may be spitting up blood. The mortality rate from this condition is high and hospitalization is essential. In some cases blood transfusions are needed.
