Relationship between Transmission Intensity and Incidence of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever in Thailand
Figure 6
Relationship between DHF incidence and transmission intensity predicted by simulations.
Incidence of DHF generated by simulations are plotted over Basic Reproductive Number (R0). The used scenarios are: two-year cross-immunity (A–D); age-dependency which assumed a higher probability of manifesting DHF in the older individuals (E–H); and control scenario without cross-immunity or age-dependency (I–L). Incidences in the last “W” years in each simulation were averaged, where W = 3 years (A, E, I), 10 years (B, F, J), 20 years (C, G, K), or 40 years (D, H, L). Y-axis is log scale.
