Abstract：
:A 29-year-old Dutch tourist of the Caucasian race had to break her return journey from Indonesia as she developed dengue haemorrhagic fever. She appeared to have been infected on Bali. Serological investigation revealed very high antibody titres against dengue virus types 1 and 3 and a moderately high titre against type 4 virus in the serum sample collected two weeks after onset of disease. In the sample taken 14 weeks after onset only more normalized antibody titres against type 1 and type 3 remained detectable. Although during earlier trips to the tropics she never showed signs of dengue fever, the timing of her first infection remains uncertain. The influence of age, race and double infections is discussed with relation to the cause of dengue haemorrhagic fever.
