From the article --

One of the country’s anti-dengue strategies aims to hamper the mosquitoes’ ability to spread disease by infecting the insects with a common bacteria—Wolbachia. The bacteria seems to boost the mosquitoes’ immune response, making it more difficult for dengue and other viruses to grow inside the insects. It also directly competes with viruses for crucial molecules they need to replicate.

I have had dengue twice. 2/10, would not recommend.

Congratulations, you're halfway there! Just two more times and you'll never catch it again 😁
