MVO: Dengue fever is transmitted by vector mosquitoes.
While you may not have symptoms when infected, if the virus is present in the blood, a second bite can spread it to others!
Therefore, after returning from areas affected by dengue, apply insect repellent containing DEET for 14 consecutive days.
Remember to see a doctor if you feel unwell.
To prevent mosquito bites, wear light-coloured, loose and long-sleeve clothing, and apply insect repellent.
Beware of dengue. Prevent mosquito bites!
