Case Report: Malaria, Dengue, and COVID-19 in a Migrant Entering the United States

Migrants are vulnerable to various tropical diseases as they traverse regions enroute to the United States. These diseases include malaria, mosquito-borne arboviruses, and helminth diseases. The congregate settings where migrants shelter also render them vulnerable to communicable diseases such as COVID-19. As more migrants arrive at our southern border, clinicians will likely encounter migrant patients with fevers. Clinicians must have high suspicion and familiarize themselves with managing tropical diseases. Co-infection of multiple tropical and communicable diseases should also be considered.
