As of the latest record on August 27, 2022, the Philippines has a total of 145,341 cases of dengue and most of the people affected are children under 15 years of age and individuals below 20 years old. Dengue is a viral infection transmitted to humans through the bite of infected mosquitoes and it is an alarming health threat in the Philippines every year.
It is important to note how dangerous this seasonal flu is because the virus that causes both dengue and COVID-19 can cause similar symptoms in the early stages of infection.
What are the common symptoms of Dengue?
