More than 3 million cases of dengue fever have been reported in the Americas this year with over 882 in the United States, according to the CDC.
"This is concerning," says Dr. Krutika Kuppalli, infectious disease physician and chair of the Infectious Disease Society of the Americas Global Health.
"A lot of people think that the United States is impervious to mosquito-borne illness," says Dr. Amesh Adalja, senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security. "That's just not true," he added. Mild symptoms can be confused with other illnesses that can cause fever, aches, pains and/or rash. In rare cases, dengue can be severe. "People do not realize that it can cause serious infection or lead to death," Kuppalli says.
