Oct 5, 2022 · Picture 2. Headache, eye pain (ie, pain with eye movement), and joint pain occur in 60 to 70 percent of cases [ 24 ]. Rash occurs in approximately half of cases; it is more common during primary infection than secondary infection. When present, rash generally occurs two to five days after the onset of fever [ 24 ].
The dengue virus is a tiny structure that can only replicate inside a host organism. The four closely related dengue viruses — DEN-1, DEN-2, DEN-3, and DEN-4 — are found in the same regions of ...
Jun 14, 2023 · Dengue viruses are spread to people through the bite of an infected Aedes species ( Ae. aegypti or Ae. albopictus) mosquito. These mosquitoes also spread Zika, chikungunya, and other viruses. Almost half of the world’s population, about 4 billion people, live in areas with a risk of dengue. Dengue is often a leading cause of illness in areas ...
