TITLE:

"AEDES AEGYPTI: LESSONS FROM 10 YEARS OF MONITORING."

KEY WORDS:

Aedes aegypti; vector; entomological surveillance; LIRAa; ecology.

PAGES: 40
BIG AREA: Ciências Biológicas
AREA: Ecologia
SUMMARY:

Species considered invasive are those that simultaneously expand their geographic distribution and become abundant in locations that were not part of their original distribution. Many of the diseases that impact public health emerge from the interaction between humans and other species, so ecology has a lot to contribute to epidemiology in the development of tools applied to public health. Aedes aegypti (Culicidae, Diptera) is an African species of great health importance because it is associated with the transmission of arboviruses such as zika, chikungunya, yellow fever, and dengue. The mosquito is successful in anthropized environments. Therefore, it is essential to understand the vector's behavior, distribution, dynamics, and relationship with the incidence of diseases transmitted by it. The general objective of the research is to describe and identify encouraging epidemiological factors associated with the ecology of Aedes aegypti no Distrito Federal over ten years. The specific objectives are (i) to characterize the state of the art regarding what is disseminated about the ecology of Aedes aegypti; (ii) to identify spatiotemporal patterns of mosquito populations; (iii) to understand the relationship between vector populations and the incidence and prevalence of vector-transmitted diseases; (iv) to position the Federal District in comparison with other locations and monitoring methods; (v) to predict possible scenarios that can lead to decision-making. Thus, we hope that this research can contribute to the formulation and adjustment of public policies based on the ecology of the vector and the monitoring experience collected during the last decade.
