Dr. Anthony Fauci was hospitalized earlier this month with West Nile virus.

More than 20 travelers have returned to the U.S. from Cuba with Oropouche , or "sloth fever" The surge in human diseases spread by mosquitoes is due to climate change, experts say.

Oropouche virus isn't present in U.S. animals, so mosquitoes here aren't spreading it.

The CDC is warning that doctors should be on the lookout for possible infections in travelers.

The virus commonly causes fever, headache, joint aches and a rash.
