The mathematical model for dengue fever transmission studied by [1], has been re-investigated. The differential transformation method (DTM) is used to compute the semi-analytical solutions of the non-linear differential equations of the compartment (SIR) model of dengue fever. This epidemiology problem is well-posed. The effect of treatment as a control measure is studied through the growth equations of exposed and infected humans. The inadvertent errors in the recurrence relations (DTM) of equations for dengue disease transmission including initial conditions have been removed. Furthermore, the semi-analytic solutions of the model are obtained and verified with the built-in function AsymptoticDSolveValue of Wolfram Mathematica. It has been found that results obtained from the DTM are valid only for small-time t (t < 1.5), as t becomes large, the human population (exposed and recovered) and infected vector population become negative.
