There are currently 5 types of dengue. The latter, Type 5 (DENV-5), was identified in 2007 in Malaysia, Asia. The 5 types of dengue cause the same symptoms, including high fever, headache, eye pain and extreme fatigue.
The risk of contracting dengue more than once is due to the fact that the person has already suffered from dengue and has now been infected with another type of dengue, which determines an increased risk of dengue hemorrhagic fever. overreaction of the body to the virus, making a second exposure more serious, which could lead to internal bleeding and lead to illness if treatment is not received early.

All types of dengue are caused by the same virus, however, there are 5 small variations of this virus, these differences are so small that they cause the same disease, with the same symptoms and the same forms of treatment. It is true that type 3 (DENV-3) is more virulent, which means that it causes more severe symptoms than others.
No, the symptoms of dengue are always the same, but always the person contracts dengue more than once, the symptoms become more severe because there is a risk of bleeding dengue, so everyone should work together to prevent dengue reproduction. avoiding all sources of stagnant water.
Yes, each person can develop dengue up to 4 times in life, because each type of dengue, DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, DENV-4 and DENV-5, is a different virus, so when it arrives if infected with type 1, this disease will cause immunity to this specific virus, but if it is bitten by a mosquito that transmits the type 2 dengue virus , the disease will develop again and in this case, the risk of developing hemorrhagic dengue is higher.
This would not be impossible, but it is highly unlikely, as three different types of dengue would need to circulate in the same region, which is extremely rare, so that no such cases have been reported.
