Dengue is a disease which has spread all over the world rapidly during the year 2017. Three of my classmates and six other friends have been affected by dengue.
Dengue is a disease which is spread by the dengue mosquito which can be easily recognized by the white patches in its body. It is best if you can do things which prevent you from being affected by dengue such as eating a healthy meal every day, applying a mosquito repellant cream, spray or oil, and wearing long sleeved shirts and long trousers whenever possible. Doctors have now discovered drugs and medicines which can be taken by dengue affected patients. It would be good if something which prevents dengue mosquitoes from coming near humans is invented.
