Dengue Fever

The rainy season has come early this year. This has resulted in a high incidence of Dengue Fever occurring in Chiang Mai at the present time.

Dengue fever, also known as break-bone fever, is a viral infection that spreads through mosquito bites, causing fever, rashes, muscle aches, inflamed joints, and swollen lymph nodes. In severe cases, dengue can be fatal.  

You can lower your risk of dengue by avoiding mosquito bites especially during the day.
