Abstract

Dengue fever should be included in the differential diagnosis of febrile illness even if another infection such as COVID-19 has been found in returning travellers from tropical and sub-tropical area where dengue virus circulates epidemically. We describe a 40-year-old man diagnosed with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 and dengue fever during the COVID-19 outbreak in Milan, Italy.
