The rate of deaths associated with dengue fever is now becoming less. But this does not mean that we should not put concern on it. Many of my friends had dengue and according to them, it is not easy. We should keep in mind that dengue fever is fatal and it must be prevented.
As what people who are associated with the health department say, we must prevent it. And this is prevented by particularly, keeping our homes clean—inside and outside.
Aedes Aegypti, the kind of mosquito that carries the disease, lays their eggs in stagnant water which is found in our homes. Change the water in flower vases every other day to prevent the mosquitoes from laying their egg there. And keep the water containers covered,.
For yourself, see to it that you apply mosquito repellant lotion. Several are available in the market with variations of scents.
Bear in mind that prevention is better than cure.

Dengue has been an uncontrolled complaint  especially during summer and rainy season. We all know that Dengue Fever is a flu-like sickness that has several verifying uniqueness.  More often than not,  this disease have an effect on  children and youth, and is even much fatal when taken for granted. A number  of symptoms comprises of high fever, brutal  headache, soreness of the eyes, muscle and joint pains as well as rashes. A person can catch a dengue fever if they are exposed to one serotype. Whenever someone has recovered from Dengue during it’s first hit, the  patient somehow turns out to be immune to this single serotype. Upon a second infection, the patient have the possibility to get a big chance of developing dengue hemorrhagic fever which is more deadly.

It would be quite funny to automatically check yourself after a mosquito bite for signs of dengue fever, but it does pay to know its symptoms. The signs of dengue fever may only start to show three to fifteen days after being bitten. The patient will experience chills, and headache. There would also be pain upon moving the eyes, the lower back, and joints. Temperature due to fever can rise up to 104� F (40� C). Heart rate and blood pressure becomes low. Eyes redden and a pink rash appears then disappears over the face. Lymph nodes are also swollen. If any of these signs strike, it is best to check into a hospital immediately.
