What is Dengue Fever?

Dengue Fever is a viral infection spread by Aedes mosquitoes, especially Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. Unlike malaria, Dengue is most common in urban and semi-urban areas.

Global Distribution of Dengue

Dengue is widespread in:

• Southeast Asia (Thailand, India, Vietnam)

• South America (Brazil and neighbouring countries)

• Africa (including Kenya and other tropical regions)

• Caribbean islands and Central America

How Dengue is Contracted

• Transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, which bite during the day — especially mornings and late afternoons.

• Spread occurs when an infected mosquito bites a human, transmitting one of four strains of the virus.

Who is Most at Risk?

• Tourists visiting tropical cities

• Backpackers and long-term travellers

• Business travellers in urban centres

• Volunteers, expats, and aid workers

Symptoms of Dengue Fever

Mild Cases

• Sudden high fever

• Severe headaches

• Pain behind the eyes

• Muscle and joint pain (“breakbone fever”)

• Nausea, vomiting, and rash

Severe Cases (DHF & DSS)

• Severe abdominal pain

• Persistent vomiting

• Bleeding gums or nose

• Difficulty breathing

Severe Dengue requires immediate hospital treatment.

Why the Dengue Fever Vaccine is Important

How it Works

The Dengue vaccine trains your immune system to resist the virus, reducing your risk of severe illness.

Effectiveness

Clinical trials show strong, long-term protection against multiple Dengue strains.

Guidance

Both the WHO and NHS recommend Dengue vaccination for at-risk travellers.

Who Should Get Vaccinated?

• Travellers to Asia, Africa, and Latin America

• Anyone who has previously had Dengue (as repeat infections can be more severe)

• Volunteers, students, and business travellers staying long-term

When to Get Vaccinated

Book your vaccine 1–2 months before travel, as some regimens require more than one dose.

Side Effects and Safety

Common, Mild Reactions

• Redness or pain at injection site

• Mild fever

• Headache or tiredness

Rare, Serious Reactions

Very rare side effects will be explained fully by our pharmacist before vaccination.

Protecting Against Other Mosquito-Borne Diseases

Alongside Dengue, you may also need protection against:

• Malaria – Preventable with antimalarials and repellents

• Yellow Fever – Required for some countries in Africa & South America

• Japanese Encephalitis – Important for rural Asia travel

Travel Health Advice: Preventing Mosquito Bites

• Wear long-sleeved clothing

• Use DEET-based repellents

• Sleep under treated nets

• Stay in screened or air-conditioned rooms

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How long does the Dengue vaccine last?
Protection typically lasts for several years. Boosters may be required.

Q2: Is the vaccine safe for children?
Yes, certain vaccines are approved for children. Ask our pharmacist for guidance.

Q3: Can I get Dengue more than once?
