As there are four dengue virus serotypes so it is possible to be infected four times.
Second time dengue virus infection can be severe than the first one.
Dengvaxia is the vaccine ..the vaccine is only recommended in those who have previously had dengue fever. Not licensed in India.
Next Steps
consult a doctor nearby so it will be easy for you in case of any emergency.
