Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Being endemic for dengue with around 5000 cases per year since year 2000, epidemics have been reported during the rainy seasons once every 3-4 years. Along with the geographic expansion the incidence too has grown – with over 20 districts reporting more than 100 cases per 100,000 population in 2010. Reported national incidence has a marked upward trend. An incidence of 30/100,000 population in year 2000 has gone up to 170/100,000 population by 2009 (an increase of almost 6 times) and &gt;200/100,000 in 2010.
  2. Sri Lanka has both childhood &amp; adult dengue
  3. shows the number and percentage of children positive for flavivirus antibodies. Overall 51.4% (407) of children were seropositive. There was an increasing trend with age, from 7.4% (2) among infants between 6 and 12 months to 71.7% (38) by the age of 11 years. Among 25 infants &lt;6 months of age, 33.3% were seropositive, indicating that there is substantial acquisition of maternal antibodies among infants in this population.
  4. Dengue is a quintessential 20-21 st century emerging disease. By 1960, Aedes aegypti had been largely eradicated from the American tropics but after abandoning vector control programs, the mosquito quickly returned. Viral infections were accelerated by the demographic forces described in this slide.
  5. We are experiencing more and more severe form of the disease.
  6. Dengue has undoubtedly become the most important public health concern in Sri Lanka at present. And it has received the highest political commitment. Last week (on May 25 th ) a Presidential Task Force was set-up involving 8 ministries with a mandate to control dengue through strengthened intersectoral collaboration.
