Dengue fever also called “break bone” fever is a viral condition that is presently occurring in many of our neighbouring Caribbean islands. This flu-like illness can affect many individuals when there is an epidemic. The first reported epidemics of dengue fever occurred in 1779-1780 in Asia, Africa and North America. Dengue fever is usually considered to be a mild illness but when individuals develop haemorrhagic dengue fever the condition can become life threatening.
