title: Surveillance for West Nile, dengue, and chikungunya virus infections, Veneto Region, Italy, 2010.
abstract: In 2010, in Veneto Region, Italy, surveillance of summer fevers was conducted to promptly identify autochthonous cases of West Nile fever and increase detection of imported dengue and chikungunya in travelers. Surveillance highlighted the need to modify case definitions, train physicians, and when a case is identified, implement vector control measures.
