Abstract: Oropouche fever has gained prominence due to its outbreaks and health consequences, particularly in Latin American countries. In addition to the more common symptoms of fever and nausea, Oropouche has been reported to cause neurological and gastrointestinal problems. However, Oropouche remains a neglected disease that needs improved detection methods. The purpose of this letter is to raise awareness of this infectious disease and the methods that can be used to detect and ultimately control it.
