The development of an early warning system for climate‐sensitive disease risk with a focus on dengue epidemics in Southeast Brazil
The development of an early warning system for climate‐sensitive disease risk with a focus on dengue epidemics in Southeast Brazil
Previous studies demonstrate statistically significant associations between disease and climate variations, highlighting the potential for developing climate‐based epidemic early warning systems. However, limitations include failure to allow for non‐climatic confounding factors, limited geographical/temporal resolution, or lack of evaluation of predictive validity. Here, we consider such issues for dengue in Southeast …
