The state Department of Health has identified a new travel-related case of dengue virus on Oahu, bringing the total number of cases in Hawaii this year to 14 — one on Maui and 13 on Oahu.

Health officials said the individual in the latest case was exposed to the virus while traveling in a region where dengue is common and is not connected to previous cases.

Several countries are reporting increased dengue activity, including Fiji, French Polynesia, Samoa, Tonga, the Philippines, Vietnam, Colombia, Cuba, El Salvador and Nicaragua, according to the department.

Travelers should review up-to-date, country-specific information on dengue risk and prevention at least four to six weeks before departure. Health care providers and individuals who suspect a dengue infection are advised to call the Disease Reporting Line at 808-586-4586.
