Abstract

Dengue is an anthropod borne virus characterized by biphasic fever, myalgia or arthralgia rash, leucopenia ,thrombocytopenia and lymphadenopathy. Dengue virus belongs to flaviviridae and there are four distinct antigenic types (DENV 1,DENV 2,DENV 3,DENV4). The clinical spectrum of dengue fever ranges from asymptomatic infection to dengue shock syndrome.
