چکیده

A dengue tem ampla distribuição em áreas tropicais, ocorrendo de forma endêmica e eventualmente epidêmica. É transmitida por mosquitos do gênero Aedes, principalmente Aedes aegypti, cuja distribuição e adaptação em ambientes urbanos e peridomiciliares explica a predominância da dengue em cidades.
