Please repeat his cbc every alternate day.
Shivering - indicates fever, so check temperature.
Also, cover him up with 2-3 quilts.
See that he is hydrated well- very important

Sorry to hear he is not well. Dengue can make children very unwell, it will be best for him to be examined physically if things are not improving already
