The latest update from the Health Ministry shows no additional Dengue deaths.

It says there are 825 lab confirmed cases of Dengue Fever and eight lab confirmed fatalities.

Dengue Fever may be spread by the Aedes aegypti mosquito, with symptoms appearing within 5-6 days of being bitten.

These last for 1-2 weeks and can include: fever, headaches, pain behind the eyes, muscle and joint pains, skin rash, nausea/vomiting and diarrhoea.

Anyone showing signs or symptoms of Dengue Fever should seek immediate medical treatment.

The Ministry adds that persons with symptoms should not use aspirin, motrin, cataflam, olfen or ibuprofen, as these can cause bleeding which leads to shock.

They are instead advised to use paracetamol, acetaminophen (Panadol/Tylenol) or medicines prescribed by a doctor.
