Aloha ‘Ohana,

Here is an important PSA from Hawaii State Department of Health. The @hawaiiDOH has confirmed one travel-related dengue virus case on O'ahu. The individual traveled to a region where dengue is known to be spread.

Symptoms of dengue can range from mild to severe and include fever, nausea, vomiting, rash, and body aches.

Symptoms typically last two to seven days and although severe and even life-threatening illness can occur, most people recover after about a week. If you have traveled recently to any area where dengue is common and are experiencing these symptoms, please contact your healthcare provider.
