Abstract
In the Region of the Americas, between epidemiological week (EW) 1 and EW 22 of 2019, a total of 1,191,815 cases of dengue (118.5 cases per 100,000 population) have been reported, of which 546,589 (46%) were laboratory-confirmed and 5,599 (0.47%) were classified as severe dengue. The reported case-fatality rate was 0.02%. The number of cases reported during this period (EW 1 to EW 22 of 2019) was higher than the annual totals reported during the most recent two years (2017-2018), but lower than the annual totals reported during 2015-2016. The proportion of cases of severe dengue reported thus far in 2019 is higher than the annual proportions reported during 2016-2017, but lower than the annual proportions reported during the previous 10 years (2006-2015).
