Objectives
  • Describe the epidemiology of dengue fever in
    Brazil
  • Understand transmission cycles
  • Describe consequences of infection
  • Define factors that influence vector populations
  • (e.g., location, abundance, extrinsic incubation)
  • Understand receptivity of region to other
    vector-borne viruses

5
Questions for discussion dengue
  • Why is dengue causing increasingly severe
    epidemics?
  • How is the virus maintained?
  • Where do new serotypes come from?
  • Explain the seasonality and year-to-year changes
    in epidemiology.
  • A dengue vaccine is under development. Discuss
    factors critical in its evaluation.
  • Why does mortality vary by region?

6
Dengue
  • Mosquito-transmitted flavivirus
  • Four major serotypes (den-1, den-2, den-3, den-4)
  • gt2.5 bil persons live in dengue-endemic areas
  • 50-100 mil cases dengue/yr
  • Increase in area, cases, severity

7
Dengue since 1955
WHO Data
8
Dengue Infections
  • Incubation 4-7 days (3-14)
  • Infection
  • Asymptomatic or mild
  • Acute febrile illness (dengue fever)
  • Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF)
  • Dengue shock syndrome (DSS)
  • No chronic carrier state

9
Clinical Findings
  • Headache, fever, myalgia
  • Nausea, vomiting
  • Rash (50)
  • Laboratory
  • Low WBC
  • Low platelets
  • Abnormal liver function

10
Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever
  • Mortality gt 20 (lt1 with good care)
  • Risk for DHF increased 100x with 2nd infection
    (different serotype)
  • Thailand, 2 cohort studies
  • DHF rate 0 in primary infection
  • 1.8 and 12.5 with 2nd
  • Virulence may also vary by genotype

Aedes aegypti
14
Aedes Aegypti
  • Wide distribution in urban areas
  • Well adapted to contemporary urban life
  • Breeding sites
  • Discarded plastic containers, cans
  • Used tires, flowerpots, tree holes
  • Enters homes prefers human blood
  • Nervous feeder multiple hosts

15
Aedes Aegypti
  • Usually do not disperse beyond 100 m
  • Most movement of dengue viruses occurs via
    movement of viremic hosts

16
Vector DispersalHorizontal and Vertical
  • Study site Singapore
  • Ae aegypti Ae albopictus fed rubidium-laced
    blood female offspring released
  • Female movement traced (oviposition sites)
  • Findings
  • Horizontal radius of 320 m
  • Vertical release on level 12 of 21-story apt
    dispersed to top and bottom

Aedes aegypti Distribution in the Americas

18
Environmental Influences on Vector
  • Presence or absence
  • Abundance longevity of adult
  • Time for development
  • Frequency of biting
  • Blood feeding frequency increases with higher
    temperatures
  • Extrinsic incubation period (time for virus to
    disseminate in mosquito)
  • Seasonality of pathogen transmission

19
Extrinsic Incubation Period
  • Time between entry of organism into vector and
    time when vector can transmit pathogen
  • Sensitive to environmental conditions
  • If extrinsic incubation period exceeds lifespan
    of vector, it cannot transmit infection

20
Extrinsic Incubation and Dengue
  • Temperature inverse relationship with EI period
    (lt20 C Ae aegypti eggs do not hatch)
  • 12 days for mosquitoes at 30 C
  • 7 days at 32 and 35 C
  • Temperature required for effective transmission
    depends on virus vector

Watts et al. Am J Trop Med Hyg 198736143-52.
21
Vertical Transmission of Dengue Virus
  • Transovarial transmission of virus can occur
  • Ae aegypti eggs subjected to adverse hatching
    conditions can remain viable in the environment
    gt100 days.

22
Dengue/Mosquito Interaction
  • Aedes aegypti needs viral titer 105-107
    particles/ml of blood to become infected
  • Vector serves to select viruses that produce high
    viremia in humans

23
Aedes Albopictus Female
24
Aedes Albopictus
  • Competent vector for 22 arboviruses
  • Dengue
  • Yellow fever
  • Eastern equine encephalitis
  • La Crosse virus
  • West Nile virus

25
Aedes Albopictus
  • Main vector in Hawaii dengue outbreak, 2001-2002
  • Introduced into North America in 1985 via used
    tires from Asia
  • Within 12 yr, spread to 25 states (dispersal
    followed interstate highways)
  • Recent introductions into many parts of Latin
    America

Chronology of Dengue in Brazil
  • 1981-1993 localized epidemics
  • 1981 outbreak den1 den4 in NW
  • 1986 den1 in Rio de Janeiro State
  • 1990 intro den2 Rio State first confirmed DHF
  • 1994-2002 epidemic/endemic countrywide
  • 1994-1999 Ae aegypti dispersed countrywide
  • 1999 widespread outbreaks
  • 2000 intro den3 in Rio State
  • 2002 large outbreaks (dengue deathsgtmalaria

  • More urban areas large enough to sustain ongoing
    viral circulation
  • Poor housing, inadequate water supply
  • Poor vector control and resistance
  • Travel and migration

Chikungunya Virus
  • Alphavirus, family Togaviridae (first identified
    in Tanzania, 1953)
  • Emerged in Indian Ocean islands 2005
  • Has moved to India, other countries in region
    explosive outbreaks high attack rates
  • Spread by Aedes aegypti and Ae albopictus
  • Will it spread to the Americas?

49
Chikungunya Virus
  • Point mutation of virus associated with enhanced
    replication of virus in mosquito midgut (Ae.
    albopictus)

    glands
  • 100-fold higher virus concentration in mosquito
    saliva
