Children more likely to be bitten by Aedes mosquito
By Lian Cheong | Posted: 20 September 2011 2134 hrs CHANNELnewsasia SINGAPORE

SINGAPORE: A clinical study by the Singapore General Hospital, Tan Tock Seng Hospital, National University Hospital and Duke-NUS Graduate School of Medicine has found that children under the age of 15 are more likely to be bitten by the Aedes mosquito.

That is because children emit more heat, and mosquitoes are attracted to warmth.

But the resulting symptoms - such as fever, pain and falling platelet count - are less serious in children compared to adults.

Dr Leong Hoe Nam, an infectious disease physician, said: "When adults get dengue fever for the first time, it's usually a lot more severe than that of a child.

"So we have created a situation where many adults have not had dengue fever when they were much younger, and this gives rise to a huge population that can be infected with dengue fever."

In the past two years, patients over 15 years old made up more than 90 per cent of dengue cases reported in Singapore.

Their numbers jumped by 17 per cent from 2009 to hit more than 4,945 cases last year.

As at September 20, there were 4,277 cases of dengue fever reported this year.

There is currently no scientific explanation as to why the symptoms of the disease are more serious in adults. Researchers are studying the phenomenon, but say it will take several years to complete the study.
