Oh shit, here we go again.
Broken bones? How is that a symptom?!?
I hope it’s just a catch all data kind of thing. Like anything anyone has wrong with them gets lumped in to be filtered later. Idk. I’m guessing here.
I think it’s probably “bone pain” scrambled in translation, since it’s a dengue fever outbreak.
I suspect it's a translation issue. @noisefree linked in another, less sensational article that says this is dengue fever. And the old name for dengue fever was "break-bone fever", because of the massive amount of bone and joint pain it caused.

Symptoms such as high temperatures, broken bones, vomiting, dizziness, and headaches have left the community grappling with uncertainty and fear.

I think I’d be too. High fevers are one thing, but I don’t want my bones broken on top of that.

Reads like the beginning of a game of Plague, Inc.

Last time that happened we got GME to rip and almost bankrupted a few hedge funds. I'm up for that again,
