In 2024, there has been a resurgence of dengue fever outbreaks, prompting health officials to closely monitor its progress. This alarming statistics have put a spotlight on the mosquito-transmitted disease, and Dr. Raman Velayudhan addressed these concerns during a recent interview with Vismita Gupta-Smith on the WHO Science in 5 show.
According to the World Health Organization, dengue has become endemic in many countries in South America, Central America, and the Caribbean. In the United States, states like Florida and Puerto Rico have reported cases of both locally acquired and travel-related dengue in 2024. Although there is an approved dengue vaccine available in the U.S., access to it may require pre-admission testing.
The resurgence of dengue fever outbreaks raises questions about why it is appearing in new areas and what can be done to prevent and treat it. The fight against dengue continues, and it is essential for healthcare professionals and the public to stay informed and take necessary precautions to prevent the spread of this potentially life-threatening disease.
