The Oropouche virus, also known as "sloth  fever," a potentially deadly disease,   has made its way to the United States,  raising concerns among Americans. On Tuesday,   Florida's health department confirmed 30 cases of  Oropouche fever within the state, all linked to   travel from Cuba. Additionally, one case has  been reported in New York following travel.   Earlier this month, the CDC issued a health  advisory alerting clinicians and public health   officials to the rising number of cases. Countries reporting cases include Brazil,   Bolivia, Peru, Colombia, and Cuba. The  CDC emphasized that there is currently   no evidence of local transmission within  the United States or its territories.   There are no vaccines or specific  treatments available for Oropouche,   according to the CDC. The best preventive  measure is to avoid insect bites.   Sloth fever can present symptoms  similar to other mosquito-borne   illnesses like dengue or chikungunya  fever, making it difficult to diagnose.
