    Dengue is the fastest spreading vector-borne disease endemic in 100 countries. It is caused by four serotypes of the Dengue virus and transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. While a first infection with one serotype is usually non-severe, a second infection with a different serotype can cause severe dengue, for which there is no treatment, only early management. The Philippines sees an average of 185,008 dengue cases, 732 deaths, and a 0.39% case fatality rate annually from 2012-2016.
