Americas: Oropouche virus cases near 10,000

"So far, Brazil has reported 11 fetal deaths, 3 spontaneous miscarriages, and 4 cases involving congenital anomalies."

In a new development, the Dominican Republic reported 33 cases from retrospective testing, making it the second-most affected country in the Caribbean subregion. In August, Canada and the United States each reported imported infections.

Spread mainly by certain biting midges, the surge in Oropouche virus activity has raised concerns due to outbreaks well beyond the usual affected areas and reports of severe fetal outcomes, including deaths and congenital malformations.
So far, Brazil has reported 11 fetal deaths, 3 spontaneous miscarriages, and 4 cases involving congenital anomalies, PAHO said.

DJ-As a non-expert;
-Oropouche virus detected in a larger area
-Bringing more severe disease

Another aspect is insect spread-like Blue Tongue Virus Disease and possibly Mpox...(among a lot of diseases-Malaria most well known and deathly). 

Climate collapse may bring "Amazon-like conditions" to a wider area-so the area where the virus can be active gets larger. Also storms may transport infected insects to areas that do not normally see these kinds of virus.
