Dengue Fever

Dengue Fever is a viral disease which is caused by the Dengue Fever virus and it is transmitted through mosquito bites. Mainly, Aedes mosquitoes are responsible for the transmission of this virus which can easily spread from people to mosquitoes and from mosquitoes to people. Once a person is affected by this virus, uninfected mosquitoes can be infected while feeding on the blood of an infected person. After that, the mosquitoes will transmit this virus to a different person and they will also get infected by the virus. After getting infected by the virus, it takes some time to show the symptoms. These symptoms can take 4-12 days to appear. In the meanwhile, the infected person will have high fever along with some other symptoms. These symptoms include severe headache, pain behind the eyes, Nausea, Vomiting, Muscle and joint pains, rash, etc. Once someone is infected by the Dengue virus and starts to show symptoms of Dengue Fever, immediate actions should be taken otherwise it can cause severe fever which is known as severe Dengue Fever and it can even cause death. To prevent being infected by the Dengue Fever virus, we all should take precautions beforehand. First of all, our environment should be kept clean so that it doesn’t become the habitat of mosquitoes. Aedes mosquitoes generally reproduce in clean water so we have to be careful about water storage places. In order to eradicate the reproduction of Aedes mosquitoes, there should be no such place containing clean water for more than three days. Otherwise, the death toll can rise high which will be troublesome for our country. With proper steps, we can save people from being infected by Dengue Fever and decrease the death rate. It should never be taken lightly.
