Spain issues Dengue Fever holiday alert
Spain has issued an advisory warning of possible Dengue Fever infections this summer.
There is a ‘moderate’ risk of people getting Dengue during the summer.
The risk factor is centered on the Balearic Islands.
There were a small number of cases last summer in Ibiza.
Symptoms of Dengue Fever include a high temperature, headaches, skin rashes and swollen glands.
It can be fatal in some cases.
