    If you intend travelling to Madeira soon then just be aware that there is an outbreak of Dengue Fever on the island.

    At present there are 52 confirmed cases and 404 possibles.

    Normal, tropical, precautions against mosquito bites should be OK.

    There is no recommendation not to go there.
