Before you travel, find [country-specific travel information](https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/) to help you plan and pack. ## Risk classification criteria Classifications are reviewed every two years and align with [CDC Yellow Book](https://www.cdc.gov/yellow-book/hcp/travel-associated-infections-diseases/dengue.html) maps. - **Frequent/continuous risk**: evidence of more than 10 locally-acquired dengue cases in at least 3 of the previous 10 years. Areas with more than 75% of the country classified as frequent/continuous risk were also grouped in this category, even if some areas have limited or no reported dengue activity. - **Sporadic/uncertain risk**: evidence of at least 1 locally acquired dengue case during the last 10 years. - **Risk varies by region**: Dengue activity varies across the country; please review maps to evaluate risk at the sub-national level. ## Dengue around the world Dengue is a common disease in many countries globally, affecting the Americas, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and the Pacific Islands. Almost half of the world's population, about 4 billion people, live in areas with a risk of dengue. Dengue is often a leading cause of febrile illness in areas with risk. Dengue outbreaks are reported frequently in these regions, including many popular tourist destinations in: - the Caribbean - Central America - South America - Southeast Asia - Pacific Islands ### Dengue Travel Health Notices CDC provides global dengue travel notices about countries reporting higher than usual numbers of cases, or with a higher-than-expected number of dengue cases among U.S. travelers returning from those areas. [Learn more about the current situation](https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/notices/level1/dengue-global). Mosquitoes that can spread dengue usually live in places below 6,500 feet. The chances of getting dengue from mosquitoes living above that altitude are very low.
