At this time, the word \"dunga\" was first used, and later changed to \"dengue.\" {p 23042846}\n - A second pandemic during 1848 to 1850 involved Cuba and New Orleans.  \n - A third pandemic struck the region during 1979 to 1880. \nOutbreaks of severe dengue and dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) emerged beginning in the 1950s. {p 19366911}\n - Prior to the 1970's only nine countries had experienced severe dengue epidemics - as of 2012, the disease was endemic to over 100 countries.\n - As of 2016, 11 countries had approved routine use of a quadrivalent Dengue vaccine: Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore. Mexico, the Philippines, Brazil, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Paraguay, Guatemala and Peru. {p 27701113}\n\n<b>Dengue and travel</b>\n - 1997 to 2006 - . Risk for dengue among travelers peak in Southeast Asia during June and September, South-central Asia in October, South America in March and the Caribbean in August and October. {p 18598629}\n - 2008 - Dengue accounted for 1.5% of febrile illness among returning European travelers. {p 21083874}\n - 2013 (publication year) - The risk for dengue among travelers to endemic destinations is estimated at 10.2 to 30 per 1,000 person-months; and the disease accounts for up to 16% of febrile illness episodes in this group. {p 24165383}\n - 2018 (publication year) - Dengue is the leading cause of fever among travelers returning from Southeast Asia - 50 cases per 1,000 in non-epidemic years, 159 per 1,000 during epidemic years. {p 30374664}\n\nThe four strains of Dengue fever virus which infect humans emerged from ancestral sylvatic progenitors which continue to persist among non-human primates in Southeast Asia and West Africa.  Rare instances of human infection by sylvatic strains are reported. {p 21666708} {p 25092823} {p 23523817} {p 20212326} {p 19081488} {p 18325274} {m 20160507.4207603}\n\n<b>Dengue in Africa</b>\nDuring 1960 to 2010, a total of 22 countries in Africa reported sporadic cases or outbreaks of dengue; 12 other countries in Africa reported dengue only in travelers. {p 21801609}  A review published in 2012 suggested that dengue is endemic to 34 African countries. {p 22668445}\n - During 1823 to 2014, seven out of ten countries in eastern Africa and three islands in the Indian Ocean experienced dengue outbreaks. {p 26922851}\n - Dengue virus was first isolated in Africa during 1964 to 1968 (Nigeria); and had been identified in 14 African countries as of 2009. {p 19280730} {p 20184854} {m 20100826.3010} {p 20843471} {p 21029541} {p 21338953} {m 20100913.3308} {m 20100222.0597} {m 20100826.3010}\n - Serosurveys suggest that dengue is hyper-endemic in certain areas of West Africa, and probably East Africa as well. \n - Clinical cases are probably misdiagnosed as malaria.\n - Dengue / Chikungunya co-infections are reported in endemic areas. {p 18551940} {p 19581242}\n     \n[Graph 1]\nWorldwide.
