    The vast majority of annual dengue cases are asymptomatic, but about 25 percent of people infected, depending on the population, develop symptoms like fever, headache, and joint pain. A small percentage of those cases result in severe sickness, hospitalization, and even death.

    I have had dengue multiple times but thankfully never the hemorrhagic variant. While it does suck, it is nothing to panic about… except the hemorrhagic variant. That shit is nasty.
