Abstract:
Dengue fever(DF)is a natural zoonotic disease caused by dengue virus infection which is mainly transmitted by the bite of Aedes mosquito and is endemic in tropical and subtropical regions.At present,DF is spreading rapidly worldwide.Although local transmission caused by imported cases is still the main feature of dengue epidemic in China,its incidence is rap-idly increasing,and the scope of impact is gradually expanding,seriously endangering the health of people.However,no spe-cific antiviral drugs or ideal vaccines are currently available.The experts and scholars from the Chinese Society of Tropical Dis-ease and Parasitology,the Society for Vector Biology and Control of the Chinese Preventive Medicine Association and the Basic Research Committee,China Association for Vaccines formed this consensus on the basis of combing the latest advances in the disease burden of globe and China,traditional vector control and new prevention and control methods,aiming to provide a sci-entific basis for relevant departments to better formulate dengue prevention and control policies.
