Original: Florida’s Dengue Fever Outbreak Is a National Warning
Florida is experiencing an outbreak of dengue fever, a mosquito-borne illness rarely spread locally in the continental United States. Reporting frames the outbreak as a national warning, suggesting that warming temperatures and expanding mosquito ranges could bring dengue to other parts of the country. Health officials are monitoring cases and urging residents to guard against mosquito bites.
Why now: A locally transmitted tropical disease outbreak in Florida raises concerns about climate-driven spread of mosquito-borne illness across the US.
