Abstract

Dengue fever is one of the most common mosquito-borne infectious diseases in tropical regions. Understanding the dynamics of dengue transmission can help provide timely early warnings, thereby reducing mortality. However, previous studies have failed to simulate faithfully dengue dynamics and answer questions pertinent to outbreaks. By incorporating environmental factors into a time-series-susceptible-infectious-recovered (TSIR) model, a new substantive model, to analyze their impact on transmission, is proposed. The newly proposed environmental-time-series-susceptible-infectious-recovered (ETSIR) model can highlight statistically their significance on dengue transmission, thus providing deeper insight into the transmission and addressing several epidemiological puzzles.
