I imagine this has been covered here many times, but I've done a search and not found it. What is the current situation there? I'm visiting in May and will be taking the usual precautions like covering up at dusk and repellant, and while I'm not too worried about being bitten by the odd mosquito, dengue does sound pretty awful, and would certainly spoil any holiday.
I'm staying in mid-range hotels, in Seminyak, then Sanur, with A/C, but guess it's being outside that counts, walking, sitting around outside, eating in small restaurants outside the hotel. I'm an active person and will be spending more time outside my hotel room than inside. If there is a lot of dengue about, what do you all do to avoid it? Russian roulette? Or has the risk perhaps been overblown/sensationalised like other risks, terrorism comes to mind ...
