Abstract
Traditional methods to control the Aedes vector have had only a limited and temporary impact on disease prevention, either because they are not very effective or their coverage is limited. This publication provides a framework for planning and implementing Aedes aegypti surveillance, prevention, and vector control activities through risk stratification to support the development of potential operational scenarios at the local level. A comprehensive table provides a snapshot of “Entomological indicators (available methods) and main entomological indexes for A. aegypti surveillance.”
