Number of confirmed cases of dengue fever, chikungunya and rabies

Please note - The majority of cases of Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTD’s) in the United Kingdom are imported cases from outside of the United Kingdom, and caution needs to be applied when interpreting the data. There are a number of factors that play a role in influencing infection, and treatment usually occurs in the United Kingdom and not the country of origin. More information on neglected tropical diseases in the United Kingdom can be seen in the following guidance pages - Dengue fever, Chikungunya, Rabies.
