What are the CDC and WHO doing to prevent the spread of Denuge?

The WHO and CDC are two different organizations, but they are both working on the same thing, preventing Dengue from spreading. It doesn't stop there though, there is another organization, The Integrated Vector Control is also working on ways to prevent Dengue from spreading, but they are working on preventing the spread of Dengue vectors.The WHO is working on an effective and safe vaccination. The CDC has a DF and DHF surveillance system to watch where Dengue has shown up and who got it. The Integrated Vector Control is working on eliminating mosquitoes habits, emptying containers of water, adding insecticides and reducing open collections of water.

Where Will Dengue Occur Next?

Dengue occurs every year in the tropics and subtropics due to the amount of rainfall and humidity. Those are the perfect conditions for the population of mosquitoes to spread. There is no question about it, the tropics have the perfect conditions for a population to grow and a growing population means a growing number of cases of Dengue. 

Symptoms & Treatment

Dengue can either be asymptomatic or have mild symptoms it all depends. Those symptoms include; fever, headache, muscle and joint pains and a characteristic rash. Dengue Fever can develop Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) and Dengue Shock Syndrome. Symptoms usually start 4-7 days after the mosquito bite and last 3-10 days. There is no initial treatment, though doctors recommend acetaminophen for the symptomatic fever and aspirin and corticosteriods should be advised for mild side effects. On top of there being no initial treatment, there is no cure, so you have a 50% chance of living and a 50% chance of dying. 

Description, History, and Causes:

Dengue Fever is a very common disease that first appeared around the 1950s, in the Philippines. The main cause of Dengue is from a mosquito bite of the Aedes mosquito. That isn't the only cause, there are rare possibilities of catching it like; Organ transplants, blood transfusions and from an infected mother to her fetus. There has been a dramatic increase in cases because of people not being aware of what Dengue is. There are four strains, they all cause the same symptoms and they all have the possibility of developing full spectrum of disease.
