Overview
- Reátegui said in an Instagram post on Friday that she was hospitalized with a severe case of dengue and has since been discharged and returned home.
- She shared photos showing days in higher-acuity care, including time in a unit described as UCIN or UCI, with medical monitoring visible in the images.
- The actress reported extreme fever, widespread pain, a skin rash, very low platelet counts and what she described as liver involvement during her illness.
- Her public disclosure is the primary source for clinical details; media reports reproduced her post and photos but did not cite independent medical records.
- Health authorities warn dengue is spread by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and advise removing standing water, using repellents and screens, and Reátegui’s case has renewed public prevention reminders and explains her absence from Yo Soy.
