Hawai'i (Big Island): 4 new dengue fever cases bring total to 92

http://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/story/30588523/4-new-dengue-fever-cases-bring-total-to-92

Officials say there are now 92 confirmed cases of dengue fever on Hawaii Island....

Of the 92 cases, 79 are Hawaii Island residents and 22 are children....

The Health Department has also held community meetings, and Hawaii Island Civil Defense has worked to ensure mosquito repellent remains stocked in stores.

The dengue fever outbreak has so far not affected other islands.


That is much bigger than the outbreak on Maui a few years ago.
