Dengue is endemic in more than 110 countries. It infects 50 to 528 million people worldwide a year, leading to half a million hospitalizations, and approximately 25,000 deaths.

Dengue is primarily transmitted through the bite of an infected Aedes mosquito, not directly from person to person. However, if a mosquito bites a person infected with the dengue virus, it can then transmit the virus to other individuals through its bites. In rare cases, dengue can be transmitted through blood transfusions, organ transplants, or from mother to child during pregnancy or childbirth. To prevent dengue, it is essential to control mosquito populations and avoid bites.
Dengue fever affects millions of people worldwide, with estimates suggesting that around 390 million dengue infections occur annually. Approximately 96 million of these cases manifest clinically, leading to symptoms. The disease is prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions, putting about 3.9 billion people at risk of infection. The burden of dengue varies by region, with significant outbreaks reported in Southeast Asia, the Americas, and the Western Pacific.

No it is not contagious. It is only transmitted by the bite of a particular mosquito infected with any one of the four dengue viruses.
..absolutely yes!

No, a person infected with dengue cannot be a lifetime carrier of the virus. While dengue can cause severe illness and complications during an infection, the immune system typically clears the virus from the body. However, infection with one of the four dengue virus serotypes provides lifelong immunity to that specific serotype, but not to the others, meaning a person can still be infected again by different serotypes.
Dengue cannot be transmitted by lice. Dengue is only carried by a few different species of mosquitoes which are infected with the Dengue virus. These species include Aedes polynesiensis, Aedes aegypti and Aedes scutellaris.
