"Global Health" expects a standard outbreak of dengue fever

The chief scientist at the World Health Organization expected Dengue fever to represent a ‘major threat’ in the Southern United States and Southern Europe and new regions of Africa during the current decade, as high temperatures create the appropriate conditions for the spread of mosquitoes, amid warnings over the spread of infection at semi -standard levels, this year. “We need to start a lot more talk about Dengue,” said Jeremy Varrar, a specialist, who joined the organization in May. He added: “We really need to prepare countries on how to handle the extra pressure that will be exposed to in the future in many and very big cities.” Farrar suggested that the infection spread and settle in the areas of the United States, Europe and Africa, as all regions where the infection is already limited, because the phenomenon of global warming makes new areas an appropriate environment for mosquitoes that spread the disease, warning that it is a pressure on hospital systems in various countries. Farrar spent 18 years of work in Vietnam in the field of tropical diseases, which included Dengue fever, and later chaired the International “Wallast Traawe” association in the field of health, and gave the British government advice on the response to the Corona virus before joining the health organization 5 months ago. 4.2 million injuries and many cases are not recorded, but in 2022 4.2 million injuries around the world were recorded, but most parts of Asia and Latin America have long been hit as the disease causes about 20,000 people annually. Bangladesh is currently working on the worst outbreak of the disease ever with the death of more than a thousand people, and there is no specific treatment for Dengue fever, although there is an anti -incine. The incidence of the disease has increased by 8 times in the world since 2000, due to climate change, increased movement, movement and urban expansion. Most people who have Dengue fever do not have symptoms, which means that the infection rates are much higher than the registered numbers. People with the disease suffer from fever, muscle spasms and severe pain in the joints, so they are known as ‘leg bread fever’, and in severe cases less than 1%, it can be deadly.
