Dengue fever can lead to serious complications, especially in children living in tropical climates. 

One of the most effective ways to protect against it is through dengue vaccination, especially for children aged 9 to 16. 

Now, with Halodoc’s Homecare service, getting the dengue vaccine can be done safely and comfortably right from your home.

What Is the Dengue Vaccine?

The dengue vaccine (CYD-TDV or Dengvaxia) is a live attenuated tetravalent vaccine designed to protect against all four dengue virus serotypes (DENV-1 to DENV-4). 

It works by training the immune system to recognize and defend the body against the virus.

Why Is the Dengue Vaccine Needed?

There are two main purposes for getting the dengue vaccine:

Reducing the Risk of Infection

Anyone can contract dengue fever. However, vaccination helps the body build its own immune response, reducing the chance of becoming infected. 

Since the vaccine contains a weakened form of the virus, it enables the immune system to recognize and respond to dengue as a threat.

Minimizing the Severity of Symptoms

Dengue can be severe, especially if not detected early. Vaccinated individuals, even if infected, are more likely to experience milder symptoms and can often recover with simple home care. 

While the vaccine doesn’t guarantee complete immunity, it significantly lowers the risk of developing severe complications.

Benefits of the Dengue Vaccine

The dengue vaccine helps reduce the risk of serious complications such as dengue shock syndrome caused by plasma leakage. 

This condition can be life-threatening, which is why early protection through vaccination is crucial.

When Should the Dengue Vaccine Be Administered?

The vaccine is recommended for individuals between 9 and 16 years old, especially those who:

• Live in or are traveling to dengue-endemic areas such as Southeast Asia, Latin America, Africa, or Pacific Islands
• Have a history of previous dengue infection
• Reside in areas with high rainfall and poor mosquito control.

Dengue Vaccine Procedure

The vaccine is given in three doses, with each dose spaced six months apart. 

It is not recommended for children under 9 years old.
