The largest number of cases was in ; the fewest were 1 in and 2 in Dead birds might be a sign of WNV infection. Crows and blue jays are related and are especially susceptible to WNV. Among people infected with WNV: Most about 4 out of every 5 do not develop any symptoms. Some about 2 out of every 10 will develop West Nile fever. Symptoms include fever, headache, tiredness, and body aches. Occasionally, a skin rash on the chest, stomach, and back appears, along with swollen lymph glands.
Our West Nile Virus Diagnosis and Laboratory Testing Recommendations for medical providers publication describes the recommendations for diagnostic testing, considerations for when to test for West Nile virus, and more. The donated blood supply in the United States is screened to prevent disease transmission through donated blood..
Need Some Help? Although the location where the patient became infected with DENV-3 could not be conclusively identified, there are several possible scenarios. Although competent mosquito vectors of DENV are not known to establish stable populations at elevations above approximately 5, feet 1, meters 1 , and Santa Fe sits at an elevation of 7, feet 2, meters , an imported mosquito might have survived in the warmer August climate, fed on a DENV-infected person, and subsequently infected the patient.
Alternatively, infection via contaminated blood products is a rare route of DENV transmission, and this route of transmission could not be ruled out because four blood donors did not provide a serum specimen for testing. Clinicians in the United States should be aware of dengue and request diagnostic testing that includes both molecular and serologic diagnostics for patients with dengue-like symptoms.
All suspected dengue cases should be reported to state and local health departments. Persons living in or traveling to areas where a risk for dengue exists should avoid mosquito bites by using insect repellent, staying in residences with air conditioning or intact mosquito screens on windows and doors, and emptying or covering all water containers that can serve as mosquito breeding sites.
Sharp, tsharp cdc. Dengue is a potentially fatal acute febrile illness caused by infection with any of four mosquito-transmitted dengue viruses and is endemic throughout the tropics; most reported cases in the 50 United States are in travelers.
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis HLH is a potentially fatal clinical syndrome that can be acquired following dengue virus infection. The case described in this report represents the third locally acquired dengue-related death in the 50 United States and the first dengue-associated HLH case documented in the country.
Clinicians and public health professionals in the United States should be vigilant for and report cases of travel-associated and locally acquired dengue and request that both molecular and serologic diagnostics be performed in suspected cases. Clinicians in areas with endemic dengue should be aware of HLH as a potential complication of dengue and of the recommended HLH treatment regimen.
