Dengue can get dangerous if not taken care of on time. Especially if it has happened the second time. On the contrary Covid 19 does not cause internal bleeding and shock like dengue.

Dr. Ezhilarasan Suggests...

Take a TRANSFERRIN Test or Take a DENGUE IgG & IgM - ELISA/ELFA/CLIA - HR Test

I have had fever and headache since yesterday. My doctor tested my blood and found that my WBC count is elevated (12,200). I have been taking the prescribed medicine, but the fever and headache have not improved. What should I do?
