...people with dengue, the striped Aedes aegypti, does better in warm, wet weather. Regions experiencing rising temperatures and longer rainy seasons are seeing large outbreaks year after year, and what has previously been thought of as a tropical disease is popping up in more temperate regions.

My concept of John Harvard as a character is not me at all, which was actually very liberating to play. I think people that saw me were like, “Oh, there’s Alex and he’s crying. Oh my God.
