So the next time you get dengue fever, if it's a different strain, you're more susceptible, you're likely to get worse symptoms, and you're more likely to get the more severe forms, hemorrhagic fever or shock syndrome.

And dengue fever has grown in speed quite phenomenally.

I've probably had 50 women die. They all had hemorrhagic smallpox.

In the last 50 years, the incidence of dengue has grown thirtyfold.

The symptoms are also similar to those of Marburg virus disease and other viral hemorrhagic fevers.

Malaria, yellow fever and Dengue fever can also be contracted in the Amazon region.

And hemorrhagic smallpox, the most cruel of all, which had a predilection for pregnant women.

So you don't want dengue once, and you certainly don't want it again.

The Government of Cape Verde is using the internet as a powerful tool to fight dengue .

So the one thing you'll find is that where the mosquito goes, dengue will follow.

Blogger Willy Andrés in Santa Cruz has had first hand experience dealing with dengue fever

It is well adapted to urban areas and can also transmit other diseases, including dengue fever and chikungunya.

Now let me tell you a little bit about what dengue fever is, for those who don't know.

You want to get rid of this mosquito that spreads dengue, but you don't really want to get all the other insects.

They include dengue fever, imprisonment, army service, women not allowed to be photographed for religious and cultural reasons.

However, they also help create the breeding ground for mosquitos that spread the virus that causes dengue fever.

The Philippine government has launched a dengue surveillance map to help detect the spread of dengue in Metro Manila

Between April and August 2007, a fever epidemic in a four village region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo was confirmed in September to have cases of Ebola.

Von Willebrand disease (vWD) () is the most common hereditary coagulation abnormality described in humans, although it can also be acquired as a result of other medical conditions.

Indeed, symptoms in 1918 were so unusual that initially influenza was misdiagnosed as dengue, cholera, or typhoid.

During the current crisis of the Ebola virus disease (EVD), many reports showcased stories about patients, medical staff, vaccines and the consequences of the disease on the affected countries.

Four of the five known ebolaviruses, including EBOV, cause a severe and often fatal hemorrhagic fever in humans and other mammals, known as Ebola virus disease (EVD).

In December 2013, however, it was reported that wildlife officials were concerned about the spread of a new strain of the hemorraghic disease, affecting mainly young rabbits.

Using genetic engineering techniques, the British company Oxitec has created new varieties of the mosquito species that transmit dengue fever.

Interestingly, Madeira first got the insect in 2005, and here we are, a few years later, first cases of dengue.

There is also a much more severe form which causes dengue hemorrhagic fever and has already caused 3 deaths in the country.

The company is awaiting approval from Brazil s health ministry to implement this approach as a dengue control policy.

If mosquitoes cannot be controlled, the city is in danger of a dengue epidemic as well, the event spokesperson explained.

Aedes albopictus (Stegomyia albopicta), from the mosquito (Culicidae) family, also known as (Asian) tiger mosquito or 'forest mosquito', is a mosquito native to the tropical and subtropical areas of Southeast Asia however, in the past couple of decades this species has invaded many countries throughout the world through the transport of goods and increasing international travel.

1976 Sudan outbreak The first known outbreak of EVD was identified only after the fact, occurring between June and November 1976 in Nzara, South Sudan, (then part of Sudan) and was caused by Sudan virus (SUDV).

This is really unpleasant stuff, and if it was any good, we wouldn't have this massive increase in mosquitos and we wouldn't have this massive increase in dengue fever.

As Erika Pinto of Alkolica writes, dengue fever has already hit the city of Santa Cruz, and she hopes that it doesn't spread to her native city of Trinidad.

Although it's not only Guineans who have done so, one big mistake made by our countrymen in the fight against Ebola Fever was to have politicized a situation which has nothing to do with politics.

Concern about possible future pandemics Viral hemorrhagic fevers Viral hemorrhagic such as Ebola Virus Disease, Lassa fever virus, Rift Valley fever, Marburg Virus and Bolivian hemorrhagic fever are highly contagious and deadly diseases, with the theoretical potential to become pandemics.

These health hazards range from deaths related to extreme high temperatures and natural disasters to a change in patterns of diseases that are sensitive to temperature and precipitation, such as malaria and dengue.

But dengue fever now, according to the World Health Organization, infects between 50 and 100 million people every year, so that's equivalent to the whole of the population of the U.K. being infected every year.

Two days ago, or yesterday, I can't remember which, I saw a Reuters report that said Madeira had had their first cases of dengue, about 52 cases, with about 400 probable cases.

Once you've got the mosquito in your area, anyone coming into that area with dengue, mosquito will bite them, mosquito will bite somewhere else, somewhere else, somewhere else, and you'll get an epidemic.

Consider, for example, the response last year by some activists in Key West, Florida, to efforts aimed at stemming the spread of dengue fever, a serious, potentially life threatening disease, which reappeared in the area in 2009 after being absent for more than 70 years.

Puddles that do not evaporate quickly can become standing water, which can become polluted by decaying organisms and are often home to breeding mosquitos, which can act as vectors for diseases such as malaria and, of more recent concern in certain areas of the world, West Nile Virus.

If it was the case, we wouldn't have between 200 and 300 million cases of malaria every year, and we wouldn't have a million and a half deaths from malaria, and we wouldn't have a disease that was relatively unknown 50 years ago now suddenly turned into the largest mosquito borne virus threat that we have, and that's called dengue fever.

In a single year, there are 200 300 million cases of malaria and 50 100 million cases of dengue fever worldwide. So Why haven t we found a way to effectively kill mosquitos yet? Hadyn Parry presents a fascinating solution genetically engineering male mosquitos to make them sterile, and releasing the insects into the wild, to cut down on disease carrying species.
