Things to know about Dengue
Transmission - Dengue Virus is transmitted through a mosquito bite (Aedes Aegypti Mosquito)
There are 4 strains of the virus, and usually, a second infection with a different strain elicits a severe infection.
At any point, if you feel like your symptoms are not improving or you can’t manage them at home, seek medical attention
Based on guidelines, you usually do NOT need a platelet transfusion unless platelets fall below 10,000 or you spontaneously bleed from anywhere.

CT chest to diagnose COVID?
Bad idea: For ~90% of patients a CT is NOT needed. Get PCR to diagnose and CT if you’re sick enough to require oxygen/hospital
Many other disease mimic COVID on CT
If COVID test is - and suspicion high, just quarantine for 10d
(Few exceptions)
