Your Shield Against Mosquito-Borne Risks
Shield yourself from dengue fever, a fast-spreading tropical virus. The dengue vaccine is recommended for travellers and families visiting high-risk areas.
Dengue is transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes in tropical and subtropical climates. Infections can range from mild flu-like illness to severe haemorrhagic fever, which can be life-threatening. Prevention relies on bite avoidance and reliable immunisation. By combining mosquito control measures with vaccination, the risk of illness can be lowered.
The virus is common in parts of Asia, South America, Africa, and the Caribbean, making travellers particularly vulnerable. Symptoms often appear within a few days of the mosquito bite and can last up to a week. While most people recover fully, severe cases may require hospitalisation.
