What is Dengue?
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral infection
The infection causes flu-like illness, and occasionally develops into a potentially lethal complication called severe dengue.
Dengue is found in tropical and sub-tropical climates worldwide, mostly in urban and semi-urban areas.
Severe dengue is a leading cause of serious illness and death among children in some Asian and Latin American countries.
