Key Points

Dengue virus serotype 2 was detected in local Aedes aegypti populations, raising concerns for public health.
The detection occurred in 2025, highlighting an emergent vector-borne disease risk.
Analysis was performed through field sampling and molecular techniques to identify the virus in the mosquito population.
Implications suggest increased surveillance is needed to monitor and control dengue transmission in the area.
