    Dengue virus is transmitted to humans through the bites of infected mosquitoes, where it incubates for 8-10 days before being able to infect an uninfected person through another mosquito bite. Humans with weak immune systems are susceptible to becoming infected with dengue and may develop symptoms 4-13 days after the initial infectious mosquito bite.
