Abstract

An outbreak of dengue fever struck Tikarapada village, Rayagada district (April 2020). Among 117 fever cases, 49 tested positive for the dengue NS1 antigen. To identify mosquito-related factors in the outbreak, a survey of 101 houses found Aedes breeding sites in 11.6% of containers. Aedes aegypti (79%) and Aedes albopictus (21%) emerged from collected pupae. The village exhibited high (house index = 24.8), (container index = 11.6), (pupal index = 32.7), and (Breteau index = 40.6) indices. The findings confirmed the presence of Aedes and ample breeding sites, suggesting their role in the outbreak. A report recommending integrated vector control measures was submitted to district and state health authorities.

奥迪沙的非典型登革热疫情：昆虫学调查的启示。

拉亚加达地区的蒂卡拉帕达村爆发了登革热（2020 年 4 月）。在 117 个发烧病例中，49 人的登革热 NS1 抗原检测呈阳性。为了确定疫情中与蚊子有关的因素，对 101 所房屋进行了调查，发现 11.6% 的容器中存在伊蚊繁殖地。埃及伊蚊（79%）和白纹伊蚊（21%）从收集的蛹中孳生。该村的指数较高（房屋指数 = 24.8）、（容器指数 = 11.6）、（蛹指数 = 32.7）和（布雷图指数 = 40.6）。研究结果证实了伊蚊的存在和充足的繁殖地，表明它们在疫情中发挥了作用。一份建议采取病媒综合控制措施的报告已提交给地区和州卫生当局。
