Dengue fever is a disease caused by a family of viruses that are transmitted by mosquitoes. The characteristic symptoms of dengue are sudden-onset fever, headache (typically located behind the eyes), muscle and joint pains, and a rash. The alternative name for dengue, "break-bone fever" , comes from the associated muscle and joint pains. The prevention of dengue requires control or eradication of the mosquitoes carrying the virus that causes dengue. The Aedes aegypti mosquito is a daytime biter with peak periods of biting around sunrise and sunset. It may bite at any time of the day and is often hidden inside homes or other dwellings, especially in urban areas. To prevent mosquito bites, wear long pants and long sleeves. For personal protection, use mosquito repellent sprays that contain DEET when visiting places where dengue is endemic. There are no specific risk factors for contracting dengue fever, except living in or traveling to an area where the mosquitoes and virus are endemic. Limiting exposure to mosquitoes by avoiding standing water and staying indoors two hours after sunrise and before sunset will help.
