Science in Action: Deadly Dengue Virus | California Academy of Sciences

There is no cure for the Dengue Virus at the moment. Scientists like Shannon Bennett (Associate Curator, Department of Microbiology at the Academy) are researching the virus to better understand the virus and how it effects humans.

A very nice information. Actually my nephew has suffered from this infection. we went to many clinic and many hospitals, but result was not good. then someone told him about Planet Ayurveda. we went there, and starting treatment. Now he is fine. So, I strongly recommended Planet Ayurveda those who is facing such kind of problem or any other health related issue.
