Second Dengue Infection
Please help doctors,
I have recently been treated with dengue and now I am completely cured. But the outbreak is still going on in our area. I have All Out and Mortein on the whole day but still some tiny mosquitos bite me sometimes. Will I survive if a second Dengue Infection happens now to me from some other strain?
