In october 2012,the haitian ministry of health and the us cdc were notified of 25 recent dengue cases,confirmed by rapid diagnostic tests (rdts),among non-governmental organization (ngo) workers. we conducted a serosurvey among ngo workers in léogane and port-au-prince to determine the extent of and risk factors for dengue virus infection. of the total 776 staff from targeted ngos in léogane and port-au-prince,173 (22%; 52 expatriates and 121 haitians) participated. anti-dengue virus (denv) igm antibody was detected in 8 (15%) expatriates and 9 (7%) haitians,and denv non-structural protein 1 in one expatriate. anti-denv igg antibody was detected in 162 (94%) participants (79% of expatriates; 100% of haitians),and confirmed by microneutralization testing as denv-specific in 17/34 (50%) expatriates and 42/42 (100%) haitians. of 254 pupae collected from 68 containers,65% were aedes aegypti; 27% were ae. albopictus. few ngo workers reported undertaking mosquito-avoidance action. our findings underscore the risk of dengue in expatriate workers in haiti and haitians themselves. © 2014.
