It's a global pandemic. It's quite clear that the disease...has evolved. There just is more dengue in the world.

Dengue is one of these neglected diseases ... it's basically been ignored for many, many years.

Hawaiians are pretty complacent sitting out here in the middle of the Pacific. I don't think the average person has any concept of the threat.

Singapore probably underscores the need for regional controls.

Dengue is now one of the most important tropical diseases. While it doesn't kill that many people, it has tremendous economic and social impact.

It was a total surprise to us. There was no reason to suspect that we'd find West Nile here.
