Hey my beloved ones,

unfortunately there is bad news from Paraguay. 13000 people have come down with a virus disease, the dengue fever. According to the population the rate is 10 times higher. Four people died. The government declared the state of emergency - in the first instance for 60 days.
The dengue fever is widespread in south-america and it is above all a disease of the metropoles, since it spreads rapidly in slums and favelas. It is passed on by diurnal mosquitos, e.g. yellow fever mosquitos. Two to five percent of those who suffer from the dengue fever, die from it. The rate is higher among children and adolescents.

So far with the general information. A friend told me that this is a normal phenomenon, thus no reason to worry. It still causes a queasy feeling inside me, but it’s surely not a reason, not to go. 15 more days in Germany. The countdown is on.
