We present the results of the investigation of this outbreak, which was caused by dengue virus (DENV) serotype 3 (DENV-3) subtype III
We reviewed medical records and conducted prospective surveillance at all hospitals, health centers, and outpatient clinics in Yiwu to identify patients with suspected dengue fever (DF) during July 1 through October 31, 2009
