Urgent 'tropical disease' warning for Brits heading to Spain and France this summer
Dr. Kassianos said: “Although the UK and Ireland are not endemic countries, more than 800 UK holidaymakers had their trips disrupted by dengue in 2019, according to the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, with all reported cases imported from popular holiday destinations.
"The rise in temperatures is making it possible for mosquitoes to live and breed in wider territories – including areas within southern Europe, exposing travellers from the UK and Ireland to dengue in popular holiday destinations." This is particularly the case they're jetting off to tropical or subtropical areas, Dr Kassianos said.Dengue is the fastest-spreading mosquito-borne disease and was recognised by the World Health Organization in 2019 as one of the top ten threats to global health.
