India Approves First Dengue Vaccine Qdenga

India has approved its first vaccine for dengue, called Qdenga.

This vaccine is made by a company in Germany and is designed to protect people from all four types of dengue virus.

It is given as two injections, three months apart, and is approved for people aged 4 to 60 years.

The vaccine has been tested in many countries and has been shown to be safe and effective.

Over 24 million doses have been given worldwide.

The Indian government says this vaccine will help in fighting dengue, but people should still take other steps to prevent the disease, like getting rid of mosquito breeding sites.
