Is dengue dangerous

The first is that dengue fever is an acute infectious disease caused by dengue virus and transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. The incubation period is usually about 5-7 days. It has the characteristics of rapid transmission and high incidence rate. Patients are most infectious in 1 days to 3 days after onset.

Second: dengue fever does not necessarily lead to death, but it mainly depends on the physical problems. Some children or the elderly with poor antibody will easily die, while some young and strong people are not so prone to accidents. As long as they can get medical treatment in time, they will get better.

Third: the clinical manifestations are high fever, headache, muscle, bone and joint pain, rash, bleeding tendency, lymphadenopathy, etc. Most patients have a good prognosis and can recover completely. A small number of severe patients can cause dengue haemorrhagic fever, leading to death. At present. There is no vaccine against the disease. Avoiding mosquito bites is the main preventive measure.

matters needing attention

Dengue fever is an infectious disease. We should isolate the patients as soon as possible. Although there is no definite and effective drug for the disease, we can take supportive and symptomatic treatment measures to help alleviate the disease.
