Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral disease caused by any of four dengue virus serotypes. Infection results in a wide range of clinical manifestations, from a mild fever to severe life-threatening dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. There is no vaccine available for dengue prevention, so control of the mosquito vector through source reduction and insecticide spraying remains the main strategy for prevention and control of dengue virus transmission.
