Hello.. If infected insect bite you, you will get dengue or chickengunya... Single infection don't provide life long immunity... There are different subtypes in virus so reinfection is possible. So take necessary precautions.. Like mosquito net, coil, keeping surrounding clean, etc.. As shown by govt advertisement.
