Normal range is usually between 4,000 and 11,000 per microliter of blood. A blood test that shows a WBC count of less than 4,000 per microliter could mean your body may not be able to fight infection the way it should.

Take a ID NAT( INDIVIDUAL DONOR NUCLEIC ACID TESTING ) Test or Take a DENGUE NS1 ANTIGEN - KA Test
