Is Dengue caused by one single infected-mosquito bite or from several bites?

Here in our tropical country, Dengue fever - a mosquito borne disease that induces internal bleeding - is a natural occurence every rainy season. If bitten by an infected mosquito, is one bite enough or need several bites for dengue to set in?

Yes one bite could be effect if the mosquitoes was infect , also depend how is your immunity of you body

all it takes is one infected mosquito

The question then becomes... what percentage of mosquitos are infected? That would tell you on the average how many bites before you get the disease.

One mosquito bite is enough my friend, be careful !!!
