Abstract

Dengue fever (DF) is a leading travel-related illness worldwide. Outbreaks from imported cases occurred in Europe. Case detection serves both patient safety and public health interests in origin and destination countries. We report a cluster of DF cases imported to Italy by travellers to Sharm El-Sheik, a highly touristic destination.
