An epidemic of acute febrile illness caused by dengue virus occurred in Jalore town, in south-west Rajasthan, in April and May, 1985. Most patients had classical signs and symptoms of dengue fever or had only a mild atypical febrile illness. A few patients had in addition haemorrhagic manifestations/shock or encephalitis. Virological studies (carried out by the National Institute of Virology, Pune) showed that dengue type 3 virus was the main etiological agent. This is the first reported outbreak of dengue in the arid zone in western Rajasthan, that occurred in summer (April-May) in contrast to other parts of India, where such outbreaks are commonly reported after the rains (between August and November).
1985年4月和5月，在拉贾斯坦邦西南部的贾洛尔镇发生了由登革热病毒引起的急性发热性疾病流行。大多数患者有登革热的典型体征和症状，或仅有轻度非典型发热性疾病。少数患者还出现了出血表现/休克或脑炎。病毒学研究（由浦那国家病毒研究所进行）表明，3型登革热病毒是主要病原体。这是拉贾斯坦邦西部干旱地区首次报告的登革热疫情，此次疫情发生在夏季（4月至5月），与印度其他地区不同，在印度其他地区，此类疫情通常在雨季过后（8月至11月之间）报告。
