Vector
Aedes albopictus
The life cycle of a vector mosquito is dividedinto the 4 stages: egg, larva, pupa and adult

11
Habitual Behaviour of Aedes Albopictus (1)
• Usually breed in stagnant water
• Usually active in dark or shaded places outdoors, but indoor activity is also possible
![Page 12: Dengue eng](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062307/554b719bb4c90564168b516a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Habitual Behaviour of Aedes Albopictus (2)
• Female mosquitoes feed on human blood.
• They are most active 2 hours before sunset (around 5pm to 6pm) and at around 8am to 9am.
• Where do they sting?
Outdoors and indoors.

Mode of Transmission
• A healthy person gets the disease when he is bitten by an infected mosquito. The virus enters his blood from the mosquito’s saliva.
• An infected person could transmit the virus to mosquitoes if he is bitten by a mosquito anytime from the onset to the subsidence of the fever (a period of about 6 to 7 days). The disease is then spread by mosquitoes.
• Dengue fever is not spread by contact with infected persons.

17
Symptoms of Classical Dengue (1)
• Fever: continuous for 3 to 5 days
• Severe headache
• Painful limbs, joint pain, muscle pain, back pain, pain behind eyeballs
![Page 18: Dengue eng](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062307/554b719bb4c90564168b516a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
Symptoms of Classical Dengue (2)
•Rash appears on the 3rd to 4th day after onset. •Nausea, vomiting.•Slight gum bleeding and nasal bleeding.•Extreme fatigue and depression may follow recovery.• In very rare cases, the condition may worsen
into dengue haemorrhagic fever, leading to haemorrhage, shock or even death.
![Page 19: Dengue eng](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062307/554b719bb4c90564168b516a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19
Treatment (1)• At present, there is no drug that
can treat dengue fever effectively. Patients infected with classical dengue usually recovers in 1 to 2 weeks.
• For serious cases, supportive treatments are provided by hospitals.
• If you suspect that you have dengue fever, you should seek medical treatment promptly.
![Page 20: Dengue eng](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062307/554b719bb4c90564168b516a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
Treatment (2)• Wiping the body with warm
water and proper use of anti-fever drugs like Crocin that can relieve the fever.
• Don’t take aspirin-containing drugs because they worsen the haemorrhage.

Protect Yourself against Dengue Fever
As yet, there is no effective vaccine against dengue fever. Therefore, the best prevention is to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes by paying attention to the following:
•Avoid staying in dark, outdoor places such as brushwood, pavilions or the shade of a tree during the hours when Aedes albopictus is active.
![Page 24: Dengue eng](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062307/554b719bb4c90564168b516a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Control the Spread of Dengue Fever
Prevent the patient from being bitten by mosquitoes.

25
Prevention of Mosquito Bites
Avoid going out in the hours when Aedes albopictus feed or wear light-coloured, long-sleeved clothing and trousers.

Prevention of Mosquito Bites
Your place of accommodation should have air-conditioners or mosquito nets. Otherwise, hang mosquito screens around your bed, use insecticides or coil incenses to repel mosquitoes.

Elimination of Mosquitoes
The most effective way to eliminate mosquitoes is tokeep the environment clean and to remove stagnant water so that mosquitoes can’t breed.

Possible Breeding Grounds of Aedes Albopictus (1)
Artificial containers:
Vases, saucers underneath flower pots, trays underneath air-conditioners, buckets, jars and jugs of earthenware, cement troughs, dumped tyres and solid wastes such as cans, disposable cups and bowls, and plastic bags.

33
Elimination of Mosquitoes•Change water for vases and aquatic plants at least once a week, leaving no water under
the pots or in the bottom saucers.
•Scrub the container surfaces thoroughly to prevent mosquito eggs
sticking on them.
