2024 is shaping up to be a record-breaking year for dengue cases globally, and the numbers are truly alarming. According to the CDC, the global incidence of dengue has hit an all-time high. Countries in the Americas have reported a jaw-dropping 9.7 million cases from January 1 to June 24, 2024, which is more than double the total cases from all of 2023 (4.6 million cases).
Here’s a quick snapshot of the situation in the U.S. and its territories:
- Puerto Rico has declared a public health emergency with 1,498 cases.
- A significant number of dengue cases (745) have been identified among U.S. travelers during the same period.
