According to this article, it's an outbreak of Dengue fever:

The lack of people actually reading the article and saying it's like a new plague, and you pop along, you who actually read the article and you say it's just dengue fever.
Needless to say I didn't read the article and been just enjoyin' the tin foil hat (or face mask) conversation going on in the comments.
Yes that's what the tests have found.
There are also big dengue outbreaks in Laos and Bangladesh.
Are broken bones common with Dengue fever?
Well it's also known as "breakbone fever". Seems likely this is the cause.
