Dengue Surveillance in the Caribbean. Update as of August 4, 2023.

Key Points

  • In Guadeloupe, the spread of the virus continues to expand across the archipelago and remains particularly active in the municipalities of Saint-François and Trois-Rivières.

  • In Martinique, the spread of the dengue virus continues to expand and intensify. In addition to the southern municipalities—where Trois-Ilets has been the hardest-hit area for several weeks—it is affecting northern municipalities, notably Schœlcher, which recorded the highest number of cases over the past week.

  • The DENV-2 serotype has been identified in the majority of cases investigated in Guadeloupe and Martinique.

  • In Saint Martin and Saint Barthélemy: the epidemiological situation is calm, but it must be monitored closely.

Guadeloupe and Martinique are currently in the epidemic risk phase (Phase 3 of the PSAGE dengue system).
In Saint Martin and Saint Barthélemy, Phase 1 remains in effect: sporadic cases.
