<s>[INST] Is the dengue vaccine for all kids? [/INST] No. The Dengvaxia dengue vaccine is recommended specifically for children:

9 through 16 years of age,

who have laboratory evidence of previous dengue infection,

who currently live in areas where dengue is common.

Kids with no evidence of previous dengue infection cannot get the dengue vaccine as it may increase their risk of hospitalization and severe illness if they get infected with dengue in the future. The dengue vaccine is not recommended for people traveling to endemic areas. Source: HEALTHY CHILDREN.ORG.
