SAVE MONEY ON TRAVEL DEALS

The Pakistani National Institute of Health has reported the positive blood test of patient Janas Khan, who was admitted to the hospital with complaint of high fever for three previous days. He has been shifted to observation room of the medical ward, the APP news service reported.

Dengue fever, which is transmitted by mosquito bite, usually starts suddenly with a high fever, rash, severe headache, pain behind the eyes, and muscle and joint pain, say health experts. While usually flulike, the potential severity of the joint pain has given dengue the name break-bone fever.

In some cases, if untreated, dengue fever can be fatal.
