WHAT DENGVAXIA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Dengvaxia is a vaccine. It is used to help protect you or your child
against "dengue disease" caused by
dengue virus serotypes 1, 2, 3 and 4. It contains versions of these 4
varieties of the virus that have
been weakened so that they cannot cause the disease.
Dengvaxia is given to adults, young people and children (from 6 to 45
years of age) with prior dengue
virus infection confirmed by a test (also see sections 2 and 3).
Dengvaxia should be used according to official recommendations.
HOW THE VACCINE WORKS
Dengvaxia stimulates the body’s natural defences (immune system), to
produce antibodies that will
help protect against the viruses that cause dengue disease if the body
is exposed to them in the future.
WHAT IS DENGUE AND DENGUE DISEASE?
Dengue is a viral infection which spreads through the bite of an
infected
_Aedes_
mosquito. The virus
from an infected person can spread to other people through mosquito
bites for about 4 to 5 days
(maximum 12 days) after the first symptoms appear. Dengue is not
transmitted direc
