Dengue Alert in the U.S.: Healthcare Providers Advised to Take Precautions to Protect Against Mosquito-Borne Diseases

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently issued a virus alert due to the increase in dengue cases in the U.S. and globally. In response, healthcare providers in Mississippi were advised to consider vector-borne diseases in the differential diagnosis for travelers with fever in areas where diseases like dengue and chikungunya are common.

Healthcare providers were also encouraged to order appropriate testing for dengue when necessary and to report any cases or suspicions to the Mississippi State Department of Health Office of Epidemiology promptly. Additionally, individuals in Mississippi were urged to take precautions to prevent mosquito bites while traveling and at home. These measures are essential for protecting against diseases spread by mosquitoes.
