Hello. Very Good evening. Even without this, he needs a platelet transfusion, if the total platelet counts are 16,000. Right now, he needs strict bedrest. This Dengue virus, has a Very high affinity to the platelets, don't worry he will be alright in a few days. Take care and have a hasty recovery soon. Regards.
