Countries and regions with evidence of dengue virus infections and cohort studies with published results since 1995.
Notes: The map shows the approximate location of comprehensive cohort studies, based on a geographical area, that have examined dengue infections since 1995 for at least a year or a dengue season, although not all studies compare lab-confirmed dengue episodes with episodes reported to the surveillance system. In some locations (e.g., Kamphaeng Phet) there has been more than one cohort study. Sources: [1], [26], [40], [56], [89], [95], [96], [98]–[104].
