Comments
Dengue viruses belong to the family Flaviviridae and have 4 subtypes (1-4). Dengue virus is transmitted by
the mosquito Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, widely distributed in Tropical and Subtropical areas of the
world. Dengue is considered to be the most important arthropod borne viral disease due to the human
morbidity and mortality it causes. The disease may be subclinical, self limiting, febrile or may progress to a
severe form of Dengue hemorrhagic fever or Dengue shock syndrome
