Dengue is back in Malaysia and has claimed more than lives than tsunami did in malaysia last year. So far 70 people went to their maker out of over 700 recorded cases. Many areas are considered danger zones especially areas – Johor Baru; the southwestern part of Penang island; various parts in Selangor and the Federal Territory, including Shah Alam, Kajang, Kuala Lumpur, Cheras, Setapak, Ampang Jaya and Gombak; and Negri Sembilan. Even the new Malaysian Idol's winner, Daniel Lee's siblings got hit by dengue.
Dengue has no cure up to now. Normally doctor just poke a pack of drip and hope that you are strong to fight the virus yourself. If u are not strong will, chances are it is a one way trip to hopsital. Survivors have complained of excruciating pain in my head, backbone and joints and lots of vomiting. If not treated soon, chances it will develop into hemohorage fever.

There is some tradisional chinese medicine that may work. Others claim using local fruits & herbs like green papaya boiled with chicken to cool body down.
While health ministry is busy doing fogging, prevention is still better than cure. Especially when dengue has no cure, (heheh). So stock-up on mosquito repellant and clean those blocked drains and get rid of those mosquite larva by using abates into mosquito breeding grounds. Potential breeding areas like empty cans, empty pots, etc. Put abates in places where you have to store water, e.g. flower or plant vases. Also ask your neighbours to do the same as mosquitoes know no boundaries.
