Abstract

Dengue fever virus is a mosquito-borne virus that poses a significant public health threat worldwide. Dengue virus is primarily transmitted by the Aedes mosquitoes, which develop in small man-made containers in urban environments. Climate change and urbanization have contributed to the spread of the Aedes mosquitoes, increasing the risk of dengue virus transmission in densely populated areas. Increasing the transmission of virus by Aedes mosquitoes increases the dengue infection. Additionally, factors such as poor sanitation, low community immunity levels, inadequate waste management and a lack of access to healthcare can also impact the establishment and spread of dengue fever. Globalization, international travel and tourism can introduce the virus to new regions and contribute to its establishment. These factors create ideal conditions for the Aedes mosquitoes to develop and for the dengue virus to establish and spread, posing a significant public health challenge.
