Am I at a risk of getting Dengue
Yesterday, in the evening I went for a walk and then I saw a mosquito on my arm, while I was passing by a clogged drain. The mosquito was like I have never seen before, it was small and black with a round belly and if it was just another mosquito I would have forgotten there itself but I came back home and searched and its shape and size closely resembled to aedes aegypti. The place is near my house and any cases of dengue has not been heard as of now. Am I at a risk of getting dengue and if so which tests should I take to diagnose myself as fast as possible, or am I thinking too much.
