Description
Dengue fever hits children and teenagers harder than global figures suggest. Jie Deng and co-authors mine the Global Burden of Disease 2021 study for the under-20 picture. They track cases and healthy years lost from 1990 to 2021, by country, age, and sex. In 2021 there were about 21.6 million cases in this age group. That is a rise of about 64 percent since 1990.
The age-standardized incidence rate climbed from about 588 to 812 per 100,000. Healthy years lost rose about 16 percent over the same span. Development level shaped the burden across countries. The authors say child-focused dengue control deserves more weight in global planning.
