Abstract
Dengue fever is a viral illness that is re-emerging worldwide in relation to migration, increasing outdoor activities and travel, and climate changes. It is a vector-borne illness that can be prevented by mosquito repellents and bed nets. Children are the primary victims of the illness. With 100 million infections worldwide and the potential of reinfection, it is imperative that nurse practitioners recognize the illness to prevent complications.
