  • Tamaulipas - 3,310 cases with 591 cases of dengue haemorrhagic fever and 3 deaths. The most affected municipalities include Ciudad Victoria and Matamoros. There may be many more unreported cases of dengue since counting and reporting cases may be hampered by lack of local access to health care, and many persons with mild illness may not seek health care. Travellers to areas where the dengue fever virus is active can reduce their risk of exposure to dengue fever virus by taking all necessary precautions to avoid mosquito bites.
