Abstract
This one-page press release provides information about disease control for Dengue, derived from the Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (TDR) and Canada’s Ecosystems and Human Health Program of the International Development Research Centre (IDRC). These findings will form the basis for defining efficient, effective and ecologically sound vector control needs based on local evidence, as proposed by the WHO's strategy on integrated vector management.
