Estimating the size of Aedes aegypti populations from dengue incidence data: Implications for the risk of yellow fever outbreaks
In this paper we present a model to estimate the density of aedes mosquitoes in a community affected by dengue. The method consists in fitting a continuous function to the incidence of dengue infections, from which the density of infected mosquitoes is derived straightforwardly. Further derivations...
