Yoyogi Koen, one of the largest and most popular parks in central Tokyo, will be fumigated after three people diagnosed with dengue fever said they were bitten by mosquitoes there.
The two women and one man who contracted the disease are acquaintances and are the first domestic cases of dengue fever since the 1940s, according to a Health Ministry statement. A sample of mosquitoes collected at the park didn’t carry the virus, according to the statement.
