Risk of Dengue:- As much as the U.S. continues to deal with extreme heat, the CDC is warning of an increased risk of Dengue infections.
The CDC says this year, the U.S. faces a higher risk of dengue, a viral infection carried by mosquitoes with no approved antiviral treatment.
The warmer weather due to climate change is to blame for the increased risk and wider spread of mosquitoes carrying the disease.
In 2023, 4,000 deaths were reported in the U.S. from Dengue infections.
