Symptoms of dengue fever are: fever, headache, myalgia, arthralgia, retroorbital pain. Nausea, vomiting, and red spots on the skin may also occur. In some people, the disease can develop into severe forms, with hemorrhagic manifestations.
Persons who, in the last 14 days, have been in a city where Aedes aegypti or dengue is transmitted and display the above symptoms, should seek a health unit for evaluation.
