Why the WHO's Dengue Strategy Is Wrong

As of this very minute, the World Health Organization still officially declares that there is no cure for dengue. Unfortunately, also at this very minute, solutions like ADSX are proving the WHO wrong. Let us be sarcastic on this one: If we can kill the human body that hosts the dengue virus, why does the WHO insist that we cannot kill the dengue virus? Why is the WHO's dengue strategy defective? The WHO's dengue strategy is defective because its allocation of financial resources, its direction of medical research, and its perspective of the properties the eventual cure for dengue are evidently skewed in a particular direction that ostentatiously reflects bias, stereotypes of opinion rather than pure scientific evidence. 1. Bias for an anti-dengue vaccine. In terms of financial resources allocation, a huge chunk of WHO's budget is allocated to laboratory facilities, equipment, personnel and research effort dedicated to experiments in developing an anti-dengue vac...

Typical Course of a Dengue Infection

Image
What is the typical course of dengue? In the chart below, from Day 1 to Day 10, the course of a dengue infection is illustrated. This chart is the typical course of dengue prepared by medical experts (contributed to Wikipedia) However, the observations below are our own observations. Warning: These are our non-medical professional observations. Do not believe what we say here. -The stages of dengue infection is divided into three stages:  Febrile Stage (fever) Day 1 to Day 3;  Critical Stage (Day 4 to Day 6);  Recovery Stage (Day 7 to Day 10). - In the Febrile stage, the issue is Fever and Dehydration, - In the Critical Stage, the issues are Dengue Shock, bleeding, organ impairment. - In the Recovery Stage, the issues are Reabsorption and Fluid Overload - During the first three days, the fever is high but lowers down. What does this mean? Dengue is not really a "fever illness" but a "low platelet and internal bleeding" illness. - ...
