Aedes aegypti is already prevalent in the southern states. Has been for thousands of years. Considering it is believed they were brought over by European colonists, you must have been taught a different history than I... Yes, that mosquito has been around for a while. However, its range is bigger than in the past. By a lot. As far as dengue fever goes, it was eradicated in the 1940s due to mosquito control measures. Just like yellow fever and malaria. The concern is that with mosquitoes who can carry those diseases, particularly dengue and yellow fever, in a lot larger range than they used to, these diseases could impact a much larger area of the country.
