description We read with great interest the report by Castelletti et al., documenting the first imported case of Oropouche virus (OROV) disease in Italy in travellers returning from Cuba. On 27 May 2024, the Cuban Ministry of Public Health reported the first outbreaks of OROV disease in two provinces, Santiago de Cuba and Cienfuegos, with 74 confirmed cases. Given this information, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) assessed the risk of OROV infection for EU/ European Economic Area (EU/EEA) citizens travelling to affected regions as moderate, considering the generally favourable prognosis for recovery. Considering the current lack of comprehensive information, it is likely premature to definitively assess the risk for European travellers vacationing in Cuba. Initial epidemiological data indicate that tourist destinations are potentially at risk for OROV transmission.
