    Hemorragic is not an strain. If you got 1 strain and get recontaminated with a second strain within 6 months, you’ll be in a russian roullete of develop a hemorragic disease

      They were one year apart. I used “strain” incorrectly when what I was trying to say is that I never got what we then called hemorrhagic dengue. This was back in the 80’s and I have Thankfully never had to think about Dengue again…until now.
