Dengue fever is a diseasecaused by a family of viruses that is transmitted by mosquitoes.Headache,fever exhaustion,,severe muscle pain and joint pain,bleeding gums, severe pain behind the eyes and red palms and soles are main symptoms. Break bone fever and dandy fever are the other names of dengue fever.Bleeding in the nose and black stools may be possible.The virus of dengue is contracted from the bite of a mosquito named Aedes aegypti that has previously bitten an infected person.
This mosquito flourishes during rainy season and it can breed in water filled flower pots,plastic bags.One mosquito bite can cause the disease.
The virus is not contagious and can not be spread directly from one person to anotherThere must be a person to mosquito to another person pathway.
The only way to avoid this disease is SANITATION AND KEEP OFF THE MOSQUITOES.

Wow...and I thought we had it pretty bad. Sadly, mosquitoes carrying the virus have been evolving from time to time. What we Pinoys usually do is destroy EVERY breeding site in every home like water that's left for too long. This is where mosquito babies are found, hence the destroying thing (I didn't mean the water, but we had to in order to kill the larvae). There's also the use of mosquito nets in the evening. Other than that, it's all prevention.

If we follow the crowd, it means we are losing our identity.
