After 15 years of absence, dengue reemerged in the municipality of Santiago de Cuba because of increasing migration to the area by people from disease-endemic regions, a high level of vector infestation, and the breakdown of eradication measures. The 1997 epidemic was detected early through an active surveillance system. Of 2,946 laboratory-confirmed cases, 205 were dengue hemorrhagic fever, and 12 were fatal. No deaths were reported in persons under 16 years of age. Now the epidemic is fully controlled.
在消失了15年之后，登革热在古巴圣地亚哥市再度出现，原因是来自疾病流行地区的人员向该地区的迁移增加、病媒滋生程度高以及根除措施的失效。1997年的疫情通过一个主动监测系统被早期发现。在2946例实验室确诊病例中，205例为登革出血热，12例死亡。16岁以下人群中无死亡报告。目前疫情已得到完全控制。
