A key concern with OROV reemergence is its potential to spread into previously unaffected regions, as we have seen with other arboviruses like dengue. This highlights the urgent need for strengthened surveillance and monitoring of both the virus and its vectors.

In this review, I explore the historical epidemiology of Oropouche fever, its growing public health relevance, and emerging clinical challenges. I also highlight key research gaps, especially in vector competence and the need for a standardizedm genomic lineage system.
