Original: Dengue outbreak spares most of South Florida, but El Niño has experts on alert
Health officials report that most of South Florida has so far avoided a significant dengue outbreak, though cases have occurred in parts of the region. Experts warn that El Niño conditions, bringing warmer and wetter weather, could boost mosquito populations and raise the risk of further transmission in the months ahead, keeping surveillance efforts on high alert.
Why now: El Niño's expected effect on mosquito-borne disease risk is prompting public health concern.
