Thanks for bringing dengue fever to the attention of the forum. I'm sure most readers will be much more diligent in using mosquito repellant & be more alert looking for the symptoms of the disease now.
Try not to get so upset over one or two ill-advised comments made on your earlier post. 90% of the replies were truthful & informative, not stupid. It IS true, despite was has happened to your friend, that the majority of people who contract common dengue fever recover from it. It is very unfortunate that the people you know haven't been so lucky & suffered from the more serious type.
I'm sorry that your friend is so ill & realise that you are worried about him. I hope he recovers his health soon.
