Abstract: Bangladesh’s worst dengue fever epidemic was 2019 and the fever has plagued the nation since 2000. The purpose of this study was to learn more about the socioeconomic context of dengue in Bangladesh, as well as the general public's knowledge, attitude, and behavior (KAP) toward the disease. In this short study, it has been observed that Masters pass participants had 13% lower practices compared to the Bachelor pass participants and employed participants had 3.69 times more practices compared to the unemployed participants. According to knowledge and attitude status, the chance of practicing the items towards dengue fever was more for knowledgeable persons [aOR: 3.00 (95% CI: 0.52, 17.37); p-value=0.221] and persons who had good attitude [aOR: 1.28 (95% CI: 0.30, 5.46); p-value=0.742]. But all associations were statistically insignificant due to the small size of the sample population.
