Since the beginning of this year, there have been multiple cases of imported dengue fever in Guangzhou. The Guangdong Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention announced on the 7th that Guangdong has entered the dengue fever epidemic season. Dengue fever is mainly transmitted through the bite of Aedes mosquitoes, which are widely present in Guangdong Province. Therefore, if residents return to Guangdong after being infected in dengue fever endemic areas both domestically and internationally, if they do not pay attention to mosquito prevention, it will cause dengue fever transmission in their residential communities. According to a report from the Guangzhou Center for Disease Control and Prevention in mid May this year, June to October is the peak period for dengue fever in Guangzhou. With the recovery of overseas tourism and cross-border business activities, Guangzhou is facing a higher risk of dengue fever import. As the mosquito vector density gradually increases, the import of dengue fever in Guangzhou increases the risk of local cases. The person in charge of disease control in Guangdong stated that there is no specific antiviral drug for dengue fever treatment. Early detection, diagnosis, and effective symptomatic treatment will help the vast majority of patients recover. Only a very small number of patients will develop into severe illness, manifested as severe bleeding, shock, multiple organ failure, and even death. But the public doesn't have to worry too much, as most people will experience mild or even asymptomatic symptoms after being infected with dengue fever. The Guangdong disease control department reminds that dengue fever is a disease transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, and as long as it is not bitten by mosquitoes, it will not be infected. Clean up the accumulated water in the water dispenser and flowerpot bottom support in time at home, and use mosquito repellent incense, electric mosquito swatter, insecticide spray, etc. in time to repel mosquitoes; In the morning and evening when mosquitoes are active, go out and wear light colored, loose fitting clothes and pants or apply repellents to prevent mosquito bites.
