Géographie d’une maladie émergente en milieu urbain endémique, le cas de la dengue à Delhi, Inde

Dengue is a tropical and sub-tropical disease whose etiological agent is a virus (the dengue virus, DENV). The virus is transmitted by mosquitoes. The major mosquito vector is Aedes aegypti which has adapted to urban conditions; Aedes albopictus is a secondary vector, occurring in more rural environ...
