MIAMI (CBSMiami) Florida health officials have confirmed the first case of locally acquired Dengue fever in Miami-Dade County.
The infection is primarily spread through bites of infected mosquitoes.
The person infected with the virus has already received medical treatment and is expected to make a full recovery.
Health officials are investigating close contacts around the person to make sure more people are not infected.
Miami-Dade Mosquito Control says they are conducting aggressive mosquito control efforts in the area of concern.
Dengue fever can present itself as a flu-like illness with muscle aches, pain, fever and sometimes a rash. The symptoms appear within 14 days of being bitten by an infected mosquito and can last for up to a week.
This is the second case of locally acquired Dengue in Florida this year but this is the first case for Miami-Dade County.
The confirmed Dengue fever case comes as Florida health officials are combatting the spread of the Zika virus spread through mosquitoes and sexual contact.
The virus linked to severe birth defects in newborns has spread through parts of Miami-Dade County including Miami Beach and the neighborhood of Wynwood. While Wynwood has been declared Zika-free meaning there are no local transmissions happened, parts of Miami Beach are still considered a Zika transmission zone.
There is also speculation there may be another transmission zone. Four new cases reported Tuesday are still being investigated since officials have not been able to find a point of exposure.
Mosquito control has conducted spraying by ground and air meant to fight the spread of the virus.
As of Wednesday, there were 109 non-travel related cases in Florida and 693 travel-related cases. Of those cases, 91 pregnant women have been infected.
Ping!
When will they blow it out of proportion?
Ebola.
Swine flu.
Zika.
Distractions, distractions, distractions....
It has been verified that border-jumpers, emanating from 144 antediluvian disease-ridden countries, are carriers of TB, Ebola,Chikungunya, Dengue fever, Norovirus. Hantavirus, Swine flu, Varicella. Variola, E-coli.......and childhood diseases America stamped out years ago.
These diseased-ridden criminals and felons are being rubber stamped-into the US---no questions asked---- by Ohaha henchman Leon Rodrigues, hand-picked to head USCIS.
The Obama admin has kept secret:
<><> the medical conditions of minors dumped on US schools....
<><> the contagion status of contaminated US border-holding facilities...
<><> The contagion wreaked upon our schools, our communities, our shops and stores...
<><> the contaminated US transportation system which delivers them into the US...
<><> the costs to taxpayers to contain the contagion (if so-ordered).
===============================================
DO THIS --- DEMAND CONGRESS SEND YOU ALL AVAILABLE IFORMATION ON DISEASED ILLEGALS, AND THE TAX DOLLAR COSTS TO CONTAIN THE THIRD WORLD CONTAGION.

Obama is a weapon of mass destruction.
He announced early-on.....he had a "civilian strike force" ready to roll over any of us who dared resist.
(Smirk) Never happened.
The cockamamie plan flopped b/c Americans have remained cool and collected in the face of the America-hating simpleton's stupid machinations.

Obama induced Biological Warfare to initiate Public Health pandemic = Fedzilla clamp down. Anything to move the post colonialism ball forward.

Most painful illness I’ve ever had! This would include the gout I occasionally get and the broken bones and knee I’ve had. There are different severities and I’m told I didn’t have the worse case.
Spread by mosquio bites. BreakOut the DDT,
1st Case Of Locally-Acquired Dengue Reported In Miami-Dade County (Florida)
Hat Tip to Gamecock for the heads up !
They have sadly understated the length of the symptoms.
You and me, both, brother! Oh my goodness.
This was to be expected.
I believe you are 100% correct. My friend works in an elementary school. Illnesses that were gone or less frequent are back. Also, the illegal parents feel entitled. They get so much support for nothing ( it’s for the children!) , that they don’t volunteer at sporting events etc. They work for cash, get support for the kids from the Gov, and drive better cars than most of the working Americans. And, this is in Orange County, CA. Still affluent, but going down hill.
Thanks for the realtime input.
