A 44-year-old man is the second person to get Dengue Fever in Miami-Dade County this year, local health officials said Wednesday.

The man has fully recovered, but laboratory results confirmed he had Dengue Fever.

It is a viral disease transmitted by a mosquito, and it is not spread from person to person, officials said. Symptoms include fever, severe headache, severe pain behind the eyes, muscle, joint and bone pain.

There is not a specific medicine or vaccine for the illness.

Health officials urge people to take precautions against getting this disease by draining standing water from garbage cans, buckets, pool covers and other areas it may collect around the house. Cover skin with clothing, repellent, and make sure doors and windows have screens.
