Volusia County, Fl. – The Florida Department of Health in Volusia County (DOH-Volusia) remains under a mosquito-borne illness alert due to the identification of a locally acquired case of Dengue in a Volusia County resident. The locally acquired case was linked to household individuals with recent travel to a dengue-endemic area.
Dengue is a virus spread through mosquito bites through the Aedes mosquitoes. Dengue can present as a severe flu-like illness with severe muscle aches and pain, fever and
sometimes a rash. Usually, there are no respiratory symptoms. Symptoms of Dengue will
appear within 14 days after being bitten by an infected mosquito. Most people infected with Dengue have mild or no symptoms. Those that do develop symptoms recover after about one week. If you or a family member develop the mentioned symptoms, visit your health care provider.
DOH-Volusia continues to advise the public to remain diligent in their personal mosquito protection efforts by remembering to “Drain and Cover.”
