Dengue: Guidelines for Diagnosis, Treatment, Prevention and Control
Excerpt
The magnitude of the dengue problem has increased dramatically and has extended geographically to many previously unaffected areas. It remains the most important arthropod-borne viral disease of humans.
This new edition has been produced to make widely available to health practitioners,laboratory personnel, those involved in vector control and other public health officials, a concise source of information of worldwide relevance on dengue.
The guidelines provide updated practical information on the clinical management and delivery of clinical services; vector management and delivery of vector control services; laboratory diagnosis and diagnostic tests; and surveillance, emergency preparedness and response.
