The outbreak of dengue this year is believed to be the worst in 20
years.
An increasing number of cases contracted abroad and rainy days this year
contributed to the outbreak. Due to high temperatures and rainy weather in
Guangdong, the mosquito population is five times the normal level.
Dengue is a mosquito-borne, potentially fatal disease that affects between
50 and 100 million people in tropical and subtropical regions every year,
causing fever and muscle and joint aches.
