#1 Only a miracle has kept dengue out of the US, from Mexico, where it is endemic. A mosquito borne illness, it has extraordinary and drastic symptoms that are acute for a week and make you miserable for three.

However, unpredictably, often with a second infection, it can turn into a hemorrhagic form, like ebola. Quite lethal.

All of the mosquito borne illnesses are ripe to make a comeback in the U.S. Sanitation has slipped and DDT is no longer in use.
