登革热是一种病毒性疾病，通常由埃及伊蚊传播。描述了医学文献和泛美卫生组织报告的美洲登革热疫情。从1600年到2010年的爆发历史被分为四个阶段：登革热在美洲的引入（1600-1946）;消灭Ae的大陆计划。aegypti（1947-1970），1962年在18个大陆国家成功消灭了蚊子;埃及伊蚊再侵染（1971-1999）由蚊子消灭计划的失败引起;埃及和登革热病毒的传播（2000-2010年），其特点是爆发次数显著增加。2010年期间，报告了170万例登革热病例，其中50，235例严重病例和1，185例死亡。近年来，据报告，疫情数量急剧增加。需要采取紧急全球行动，以避免疾病进一步蔓延。
Dengue is a viral disease usually transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. Dengue outbreaks in the Americas reported in medical literature and to the Pan American Health Organization are described. The outbreak history from 1600 to 2010 was categorized into four phases: Introduction of dengue in the Americas (1600-1946); Continental plan for the eradication of the Ae. aegypti (1947-1970) marked by a successful eradication of the mosquito in 18 continental countries by 1962; Ae. aegypti reinfestation (1971-1999) caused by the failure of the mosquito eradication program; Increased dispersion of Ae. aegypti and dengue virus circulation (2000-2010) characterized by a marked increase in the number of outbreaks. During 2010 > 1.7 million dengue cases were reported, with 50,235 severe cases and 1,185 deaths. A dramatic increase in the number of outbreaks has been reported in recent years. Urgent global action is needed to avoid further disease spread.
