Oropouche virus (OROV) and dengue virus (DENV) share overlapping symptoms like fever and headache, but key differences, such as sore throat and abdominal pain, can help with early diagnosis and effective treatment. This article breaks down the latest clinical findings, explores the biological mechanisms behind these symptoms, and recommends safe over-the-counter (OTC) remedies to manage discomfort without the risks of NSAIDs.
Think It’s Dengue? It Could Be Oropouche
New 2025 research reveals key differences between Oropouche fever and dengue virus infections. Learn how to spot predominant symptoms like sore throat and abdominal pain that can help distinguish OROV from DENV during outbreaks in Latin America.
How Climate Change Drives the Spread of Oropouche Virus in Latin America
As climate change reshapes ecosystems across Latin America, a silent viral threat is emerging: the Oropouche virus (OROV). Once confined to forested regions, OROV is now infecting thousands in urban centers—spread by tiny midges thriving in warmer, wetter environments. With no vaccine or treatment, and symptoms that mimic dengue, the virus is spreading under the radar. This article explores how deforestation, rising temperatures, and rapid urbanization are fueling OROV’s rise, and what must be done to stop it.
