Article: « Dengue: more than 3,000 cases in metropolitan France since the beginning of the year »

Answer:

As of the beginning of 2023, metropolitan France has reported over 3,000 cases of dengue fever. This mosquito-borne viral disease is typically found in tropical and subtropical regions, but has been spreading in France, mainly in the overseas departments such as Réunion and Martinique. The increase in cases is a result of multiple factors, including favorable weather conditions, urbanization, and international travel. It is essential to take measures to prevent mosquito bites and consult a healthcare professional if experiencing symptoms such as fever, headache, muscle and joint pain, and rash.
