Oropouche fever, caused by the Oropouche virus, is an arboviral disease transmitted by the mosquito Culicoides paraensis (1, 2). Oropouche’s presentation is similar to Dengue and Chikungunya, but Oropouche can also cause hemorrhagic symptoms and neurological complications (1, 2). In 2024, the spread, severity, and transmission paths of Oropouche in Brazil increased (3). Brazil must take urgent action to minimize the spread of the disease.
