At the beginning of 2024, we experienced a significant surge in dengue cases. The dengue virus is transmitted through the bite of the female Aedes aegypti<\/strong> mosquito and has four different serotypes.<\/p>\n

According to the Ministry of Health, this increase is due to factors such as the combination of excessive heat and heavy rainfall, as well as the recent resurgence of dengue virus serotypes 3 and 4 in Brazil.<\/p>\n

Understand the symptoms and learn how to protect yourself from dengue:<\/p>\n

Prevention:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u25cf Use window screens and insect repellent in areas where dengue transmission is known to occur;
\u25cf Remove containers around your home that could become mosquito breeding grounds;
\u25cf Keep water tanks and reservoirs properly sealed;
\u25cf Clean and unclog gutters, roofs, and drains;
\u25cf Participate in monitoring and supporting dengue prevention and control efforts.<\/p>\n

Symptoms:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dengue infection does not always cause symptoms. A person may have asymptomatic dengue or experience a mild case. However, it is important to be alert if you develop a high fever (39\u00b0C to 40\u00b0C) accompanied by at least two other symptoms:<\/p>\n

\u25cf Severe headache
\u25cf Pain behind the eyes
\u25cf Muscle and joint pain
\u25cf Nausea and vomiting
\u25cf Red spots or rash on the body<\/p>\n

If you experience any possible symptoms of dengue, it is very important to consult your healthcare provider!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
