Experts Explain Differences and Risks of Dengue, Chikungunya, and Malaria During Monsoon
During the monsoon season, mosquito-borne illnesses like dengue, chikungunya, and malaria cause similar symptoms such as fever and body aches but differ in causes and treatment. Dengue is caused by four virus serotypes, and infection with one does not provide immunity against others, allowing for repeat infections that may be more severe. Experts emphasize accurate diagnosis and early medical evaluation to manage these diseases effectively and avoid complications.
