Sympathy to the Irons family

Crazy... I read somewhere that Dengue fever has a less than 1% mortality rate.

Wonder if there was some contributing factor. Like it was a worse version of Dengue fever or something.

 

Heart and Prayers go out to the family

Terrible news,only 32 years old.Makes you wonder how he contracted this.God Bless him.

 

Here's info on Dengue Fever from the WHO website.

Sounds like it's a growing problem...
