Dengue Surveillance in Guadeloupe and the Northern Islands. Update as of February 25, 2021
Key points
Guadeloupe
Since mid-January, the number of medical consultations for suspected dengue has stabilized around the seasonal threshold. The end of the epidemic appears to be near and will be confirmed in the coming weeks. The predominant circulating serotype remains DENV-2, with DENV-1 and DENV-3 circulating concurrently.
Saint Martin
Surveillance indicators have reached low levels over the past four weeks in both community-based and hospital settings. The end of the epidemic appears to be near and will also be confirmed in the coming weeks. The predominant circulating serotype is DENV-1.
Saint Barthélemy
All surveillance indicators are at low levels. The Technical Committee for Dengue Monitoring, which met on February 12, unanimously proposed moving to Phase 4 of the Psage Dengue protocol: end of the epidemic, return to normal. This proposed phase change will be submitted for approval to the management team, which is expected to meet shortly.
