I don't know how exact those pins on the new map are, some of them are pinned into areas where no one lives, so I think they are still pretty general indicators, instead of exact locations. With modern map making techniques, the county has the ability to be very exact, so if the county chose they could have put those pins in the exact TMK of confirmed cases.
All along Red Road are some pretty mosquito heavy locations, plus a lot of people walk and hitchhike around there, which increases chances of getting bit. The Puna medical clinic is doing some free walk in clinics with the mobile medical clinic down that way over the next month, so I would guess they are planning on doing outreach at the same time. I know of at least 3 recent diagnosed influenza cases in Puna, so medical providers are going to have their hands full with figuring out which cases are flu and which are dengue and which are just fear based overreacting.
