Clinical presentation was mild, with rash, headache, and fatigue, with only low-grade transient fever. Infection dynamics were documented by serology and PCR of serially collected body fluids. DENV serotype 2 was detected in whole blood 1 day after symptoms emerged, with viral RNA isolated to the red cell fraction, and remained detectable through day 89. DENV-2 RNA was detected in serum only on day 4, and IgM was undetectable on day 4 but evident by day 13. Viral RNA was also detected in urine.
