    Dengue fever is transmitted through the bite of an Aedes mosquito infected with one of four dengue viruses. The mosquito becomes infected after biting an infected person and can then transmit the virus while biting others. Common symptoms of dengue fever include high fever, severe headache, joint and muscle pain, and rash. More severe forms may involve vomiting, abdominal pain, difficulty breathing, bleeding, and circulatory system failure. The best prevention is eliminating artificial containers that hold standing water where mosquitoes can lay their eggs, such as plastic containers, tires, and buckets.
