Abstract

We collected samples from febrile patients in Karachi, Pakistan, in 2021–2022. Sequencing, molecular, and serologic screens revealed dengue serotype 2 and Zika virus. The Zika lineage was inferred to be from Brazil in 2016, indicating unobserved circulation. We conclude that Zika virus contributes to perceived dengue outbreak burden in Pakistan.
