Epidemiology trend with particular spatio-temporal distribution of DIR in Malaysia

Previous epidemiology record shows obvious trend of dengue fever that contribute to significant upsurge in the increasing number of dengue cases and deaths until the late nineteenth century with the sharp straight trend. This virus is transmitted to human by the bite of a female Aedes Aegypti mosqui...
