Dengue fever can affect humans regardless of age, gender, race, and ethnicity. Though rare, it can result in complications like dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. Dengue haemorrhagic fever is a potentially life-threatening acute febrile fever characterised by cutaneous and intestinal bleeding caused by severe thrombocytopenia, hypovolemic shock, hemoconcentration, and neurologic disturbances, eventually leading to dengue shock syndrome and death.
