I am pregnant for 2 months, My brother is infected with dengue, his platelet count began to raise now after going down to 100000. How long after getting the infection can dengue spread? Is it safe for me to stay at the same place now?

It is safe for you to stay at home as dengue doesn't spread from one human being to another, it spreads by mosquito bite. So take precautions wear full sleeve cloths, mosquito repellents like All-out should be switched on 24 hrs in your room. Apply Odomos when you are going out specially when you are going to park.
