How can one contact Dengue from a Dengue infected person?
Dengue is primarily transmitted through the bite of an infected Aedes mosquito, not directly from person to person. However, if a mosquito bites a person infected with the dengue virus, it can then transmit the virus to other individuals through its bites. In rare cases, dengue can be transmitted through blood transfusions, organ transplants, or from mother to child during pregnancy or childbirth. To prevent dengue, it is essential to control mosquito populations and avoid bites.

What happens when a dengue bites you?
When a dengue mosquito bites you, it injects saliva containing the dengue virus into your bloodstream. This can lead to an infection that may cause symptoms like fever, headache, muscle and joint pain, and rash, typically appearing 4 to 10 days after the bite. In some cases, the infection can progress to severe dengue, which can be life-threatening. It's important to seek medical attention if you experience severe symptoms.

Apparently yes! My husband contracted Dengue about 3 years ago in Bali and now has a recurrence of it, although milder than before he is still feeling very tired and generally unwell.

Who are the people that mostly get infected with dengue?
Those living or traveling in hot, humid, or tropical environments/climates. Dengue-carrying mosquitos congregate where there is standing water and they are more active after dusk and before dawn.

How many times can a mosquito bite a person before it becomes a health concern?
There is no specific number of mosquito bites that automatically becomes a health concern for a person. However, multiple mosquito bites can increase the risk of transmitting diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, Zika virus, and West Nile virus. It is important to take precautions to prevent mosquito bites, especially in areas where these diseases are prevalent.
