Now in Krabi. Fever is not heard here, although Krabi is much closer to nature and farther from civilization than Phuket. There are practically no mosquitoes. Comparing with Koh Chang - not at all. I think that the information about the fever is a typical information stuffing. We also saw it on Russian-language resources

Mosquitoes and fever. The topic is relevant.
The scourge of our tourists is Dengue fever. Mosquito carriers are very small mosquitoes that are not always visible. The main epidemiological site in Phuket is the Rawai area, due to the large number of breeding sites in the form of ponds, stagnant water, etc.
First and most important - ALWAYS treat yourself and children with mosquito repellant when going outside before dusk (available in all 7/11 and Family Markets). Choose the spray or oil that suits you best. Oily is more suitable for us, it holds longer and there is no pungent smell.
The second - in the room, at least for the night, plug an electric fumigator into the outlet (sold there).
If mosquitoes have bitten you, do not panic - the probability of infection is rather low, but since Dengue has already arrived, be patient for the next 3-5 days, take Paracetamol in a pharmacy or in the same markets, and spend time in prayer and fasting.
