Introduction• Basically the word Dengue is spanish.
• But its origin is from Swahili phrase Ka-denga-pepo which means disease caused by an evil spirit.
• Other names: Dandy fever, Break-bone fever.

Introduction• Dengue fever virus (DENV) is an RNA
virus(ss) of the family Flaviviridae.
• There are five strains of the virus, called serotypes, of which the first four are referred to as DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3 and DENV-4. The fifth type was announced in 20131.

Burden of dengue• Global: It infects 50 to 500 million people
worldwide a year, leading to half a million hospitalizations and approximately 25,000 deaths.
• 75% of the global population exposed to dengue are in the Asia-Pacific region.

Burden of dengue • The fatality rate is 1–5% and less than 1%
with adequate treatment, however those who develop significantly low blood pressure may have a fatality rate of up to 26%.

Modes of transmission1. Aedes aegypti (m/c)2. Infected blood products and through organ
donation. In countries such as Singapore, where dengue is endemic, the risk is estimated to be between 1.6 to 6 per 1,000 transfusions.
3. Vertical transmission (from mother to child) during pregnancy or at birth has been reported.
![Page 14: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Associated risk factors• Generally dengue affect both age groups and
sex equally. • Severe disease is more common in babies and
young children, and in contrast to many other infections it is more common in children that are relatively well nourished.
• Other risk factors for severe disease include female sex, high body mass index, and viral load.
![Page 15: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Recommended tests• GoI recommends use of ELISA based antigen detection
test (NS1) for diagnosing the cases from 1st day onwards and
• Antibody detection test IgM Capture ELISA (MAC ELISA) for diagnosing the cases after 5th day of onset of disease for confirmation of Dengue infection.
• NVBDCP had been using MAC- ELISA for diagnosis of dengue infection in the network of Diagnostic Centers established/ identified in the Sentinel Surveillance Hospitals (SSHs) and Apex Referral Laboratories (ARLs) across the country.

When to Conduct Entomological Surveys
Basically it should be throughout the year.1. With in 24 hrs. of the 1st case from an outbreak
locality .Following an outbreak based on priority classification of the locality
1. high risk areas (Priority 1 & 2) = monthly/ quarterly in 100% of houses
2. low risk areas (Priority 3 & 4) = monthly/ quarterly in at least 20% of houses
2. Before and after interventions 3. When there is suspect of insecticide resistance

Environmental management for source reduction
• Environmental modification: physical transformation of land, water and vegetation to reduce vector habitats without causing any adverse effects on the environment.
• Environmental manipulation: activities aimed at producing temporary changes in vector habitats that involve the management of “essential” and “non-essential” containers, and the management or removal of natural” breeding sites.
• Changes in human habitations: Efforts are made to reduce man-virus contact by mosquito proofing of houses with screens on doors/windows.

VECTOR MANAGEMENT Personal protection1. Protective clothing2. Mats, coils and aerosols3. Repellents: DEET (N, N-Diethyl-m
Toluamide)4. Insecticide-treated materials: Mosquito nets
![Page 57: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Chemical control Larvicides:
1. For non potable water containers (perifocal treatment): temephos(1mg/L), methoprene(1mg/L), priproxyfen(0.05mg/L)
2. For potable water containers: temephos, Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis(1-5mg/L)
Cycle : 2-3rounds /yearBoth internal and external walls of container should
be sprayed and up to 60cm of height in case of non potable water containers.
![Page 58: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Chemical control• Adulticides1. Residual treatment- perifocal treatment(for tyres)2. Space spray- recommended for control only in emergency
situations with help of:– vehicle-mounted equipment– portable equipment– low-flying aircraft types (60m above ground and 180m
swath) Types – Indoor : with pyrethrum(deltamethrin, cyfluthrin)– Outdoor: • cold aerosols (ULV spray) • thermal fogs
![Page 59: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Indoor space sprayingCommercial formulation of 2% pyrethrum (deltamethrin) extract is diluted with kerosene in the ratio one part of 2% pyrethrum extract with 19 parts of kerosene (volume/volume).
Thus, one liter of 2% pyrethrum extract is diluted by kerosene into 20 liters of 0.1% pyrethrum extract ready-to-spray formulation.(Baygon, hit) �
One liter of ready-to-spray formulation is sufficient to cover �20 households, each household having 100 cubic meters of indoor space.

Outdoor space spraying• Usually carried out in early morning or late afternoon• For narrow roads: the spray should be directed backwards
from the vehicle. • For wide roads: the spray should be directed at a right angle
(downwind) to the road. 1. Ultra Low Volume (ULV) Spray(cold fog):– Technical malathion is the insecticide used for this purpose.– Remain suspended in air for an appreciable time and driven
under the influence of wind. – Since no diluent is used, the technique is more cost-
effective than thermal fogging– But it does not generate a visible fog
![Page 62: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)

Outdoor space spraying2. Thermal Fogging–Water based– Oil based(m/c used)
• Technique is based on the principle that insecticide is vaporized, which condenses to form a fine cloud of droplets on contact with cooler air when it comes out of the machine.
• Insecticide of choice for fogging is malathion/pyrethrum
• Easily visible fog resulting sense of satisfaction.• Operator exposure to insecticide is less.

Outdoor space spraying• Target area: where people congregate (e.g. high-
density housing, schools, hospitals) and where dengue cases have been reported or vectors are abundant.
• Selective space treatment up to 400 meters ( 50 houses surrounding, 1-1.5km circumferential area in Rohtak) from houses in which dengue cases have been reported is commonly practiced
• Treatment cycle: initially carried out every 2–3 days for 10 days and then be made once or twice a week to sustain suppression of the adult vector population.

Biological control• Larvivorous guppy fish (Poecilia reticulata) • Endotoxin-producing bacteria, Bacillus
thuringiensis serotype H-14 (Bt H-14)
![Page 68: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Legislation1. Model civic byelaws: fine/punishment is imparted, if
breeding is detected. (Rs 20-200 fine). In cities Rohtak, Delhi, Mumbai, Chandigarh.
2. Building Construction Regulation Act: In Mumbai, prior to any construction activity, the owners/builders deposit a fee for controlling mosquitogenic conditions at site by the Municipal Corporation.
3. Environmental Health Act (HIA)4. Health Impact Assessments
![Page 69: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Newer Approach for vector management
• Insecticide-treated materials:– Insecticide-treated window curtains – Long-lasting insecticidal fabric covers for domestic water-
storage . Mexico and Venezuela• Oviposition traps:– Lethal ovitraps - Brazil– Autocidal ovitraps – Sticky ovitraps
• To infect mosquito population with bacteria (Wolbachia genus), which make the mosquitoes partially resistant to dengue virus.
![Page 70: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
When to call it as an outbreak• One such approach is to track the occurrence of
current (probable) cases and compare them with the average number of cases by week (or month) of the preceding 5–7 years, with confidence interval set at two standard deviations above and below the average (±2 SD). This is sometimes referred to as the “endemic channel”. (WHO 2009)
• If the number of cases reported exceeds 2 SDs above the “endemic channel” in weekly or monthly reporting, an outbreak alert is triggered.
![Page 71: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
When to call it as an outbreak• But for dengue we call outbreak even if there
is reporting of single confirmed case of dengue fever in community or
• Even single case of suspected DHF in a community with rising number of fever cases for previous three weeks.
![Page 72: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Outbreak Response• Two major components:• Early diagnosis and appropriate clinical
case management of dengue to minimize the number of dengue-associated deaths.
• Emergency vector control to curtail transmission of the dengue virus as rapidly as possible
![Page 73: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Local health authorities in Outbreak
• Emergency Action Committee (EAC): to co-ordinate activities aimed at emergency vector control measures and management of serious cases. Mainly administrative function.
• Rapid response team: aim to undertake urgent epidemiological investigations and provide on the spot technical guidance required and logistic support.
![Page 74: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)

Sanofi Pasteur(CYD-TDV) vaccine
• Schedule : three doses at 6 months interval• In Asia: follow up after 28 days of 3rd dose for 1 year1. Study population consisted of 10,275 children aged 2 to 14 years
in five countries Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam.
2. Vaccine efficacy against dengue of any one of the four dengue virus (DENV) serotypes in this period was estimated as 57%, DENV1 50%, DENV2 was 35%, DENV3 was 78%, DENV4 was 75%.
3. Vaccine efficacy was higher in those vaccinated at older ages: 74% in participants aged 12-14 years, 60% in participants aged 6-11 years, and 34% in participants aged 2-5 years. (WHO 2012)
![Page 77: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Sanofi Pasteur(CYD-TDV) vaccine
• In Latin America : A total of 20,875 children aged 9 to 16 years from dengue endemic areas of countries Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Honduras and Puerto Rico participated.
• Large-scale phase III study successfully meets primary endpoint with overall vaccine efficacy of 60.8 %
• Additional observation of the results shows a significant reduction of the risk of hospitalization by 80.3%. (WHO September 2014)

Advocacy• Advocacy is a process through which groups of
stakeholders can be influenced to gain support for and reduce barriers to specific initiatives or programmes.
Examples:1. Social mobilization(Dengue month in July)2. Administrative advocacy3. Legislative advocacy(Building Constn Regulation)4. Legal advocacy(fine)5. Media advocacy

Behavior Change Communication
• Communication for Behavioural Impact (COMBI) is a systematic planning methodology adopted by WHO to design and implement behaviourally-focused communication strategies for modifying behaviours associated with dengue and other vector-borne diseases.
• Example: – enhancing community mobilization for source reduction,– appropriate use of household insecticides, – appropriate and timely use of health services, – diagnosis and reporting of dengue cases.
![Page 80: Dengue the rising public health problem](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062904/587fa19c1a28ab825e8b6065/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Behavior Change Communication
IEC- its specific objectives are:1. Increase the visibility of the problem2. Increase levels of political commitment3. Enhance mobilization of resources4. Community Mobilization5. SustainabilityEffective communication should be SMART (specific, measurable, appropriate, realistic and time-bound) especially in outbreaks.
