Warning: Dengue Fever is Dangerous
Anybody-rich or poor-can be a victim of dengue fever. This is a viral infection transmitted by mosquitoes
to man. It is common during the rainy season. Dengue fever is characterized by recurrent fever, swelling
of the lymph nodes, bleeding, and sever muscle aches. Prompt medical attention is important for
dengue fever can be fatal.
As in in previous rainy seasons, there have been outbreaks of dengue fever this year. The World Health
Organization (WHO) estimates that dengue fever threatens some 2 billion people, mostly in tropical and
subtropical places.
Atleast 10 thousand Filipinos, mainly children, fall
victim to dengue fever every year. The worst year 1998 when some 20,000 cases were reported with
202 fatalities.
History shows that the deadliest foe of man is not the cobra, the tarantula, or piranha, but the lowly
mosquitoes. The aedes aegypti mosquito – carrier of dengue fever – caused the collapse of the Roman
Empire.
Maintaining clean surroundings is our best weapon against Dengue Fever. Garbage and containers that
could serve as breeding places for most mosquitoes must be properly disposed of. Good nutrition is also
viral for it enhances one’s resistance to dengue fever.
Dengue fever is a serious threat not only to the lives of our children but also to the future of our
country. Very child’s life is a precious resource for the country. And the death of the child due to dengue
fever means less human resource for our countries growth.
