| Abstract | |
Dengue is of growing global public health concern. Diabetes is a significant risk factor for severe dengue and dengue-related mortality. Countries with the highest number of reported dengue cases are projected to experience a substantial increase in diabetes by 2050. This likely will result in an increased incidence of dengue-diabetes comorbidity, and, hence, in severe dengue and dengue-related mortality. Countries that are or will be affected by a high burden for both diabetes and dengue should urgently design strategies to minimize the health and economic impact that a diabetes-dengue comorbidity could have on affected populations.
