Since Hurricane Milton's Oct. 9 landfall, the Florida Department of Health Hillsborough County (DOH-Hillsborough) has confirmed four case of locally acquired dengue fever in the county.
As reported on FOX 13 Tampa Bay, in response, Hillsborough County Public Works continues pumping floodwater out of communities, and the county Mosquito Management team is working to prevent the spread through aerial spraying.
University of South Florida infectious disease professor Dr. John Sinnott told FOX 13 Tampa Bay that mosquitoes with Dengue usually stay close to their breeding grounds.
