I just want to know the specific person(s) who discovered dengue. If there are none, You can also give me the details about it. thanks The first cases of Dengue Fever (DF) were recorded in 1779 in Batavia, Indonesia, and Cairo. In 1780, there was an epidemic reported in Philadelphia, PA. For the past 200 years, pandemics have been recorded in tropical and subtropical climates at 10 to 30 year intervals. In 1944, Albert Sabin successfully isolated the virus that causes DF and found that it belongs to the Flavivirdae virus family. There are more than 70 known members of the Flavividae family. Some examples include Yellow Fever and Japanese Encephalitis Virus (3). |
