Symptoms appear within five-six days of being bitten and can last for one-two weeks. These symptoms include fever, headaches (sometimes severe), pain behind the eyes and muscle and joint pains. To protect against dengue: The ministry also reminded the public the best way to reduce the incidence of mosquito-borne diseases is through eliminating the breeding sites of the Aedes mosquito.
