Angola’s 2013 dengue outbreak: clinical, laboratory and molecular analyses of cases from four Portuguese institutions

  • Authors: Abreu C, Antunes A, Atouguia J, Azevedo T, Centeno-Lima S, Conceição C, Mansinho K, Marques N, Moneti V, Nazareth T, Nina J, Parreira R, Sa L, Saraiva da Cunha J, Sarmento A, Seixas J, Teodósio R

Dengue virus (DENV) is the arbovirus with the widest impact on human health. In Africa in general, and in Angola in particular, the epidemiology and public health impact of DENV is far from clear. However, rapid population growth, unplanned urbanization, increased international travel, and the presence of virus major vector (Aedes aegypti) in the country suggest that DENV transmission may occur.

Strengthening the perception-assessment tools for dengue prevention: a cross-sectional survey in a temperate region (Madeira, Portugal)

  • Authors: Gonçalves L, Nazareth T, Porto G, Seixas G, Silva AC, Sousa CA, Teodósio R
  • Publication Year: 2014
  • Journal: BMC Public Health
  • Link: http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2458/14/39

Community participation is mandatory in the prevention of Dengue outbreaks. Taking public views into account is crucial to guide more effective planning and quicker community participation in preventing campaigns. This study aims to assess community perceptions of Madeira population in order to explore their involvement in the A. aegypti’s control and reinforce health-educational planning.
