A simulation-based method to inform serosurvey design for estimating the force of infection using existing blood samples

Fig 5

Conceptual description of the workflow for the implementation of serological surveys in the absence of previous information (such as serosurvey or case-notification data) on the FOI.

Illustration of the two-step process proposed to identify the sample sizes and optimize their age-distribution when the study is conducted in locations with little or no prior information on dengue FOI.
