Consultants from A.I.D.'s Vector Biology Control Project helped USAID/Santo Domingo have developed a contingency plan for emergency control of dengue outbreaks in the Dominican Republic. Dengue fever, an acute febrile illness caused by four serotypes of the mosquito-borne dengue virus, is endemic in the Caribbean region. Dengue epidemics have occurred in the Caribbean with increasing frequency over the past 25 years and sporadic cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome (DHF/DSS), a severe form of the disease, have been documented in several countries in the region. During an epidemic in Cuba in 1981, more than 100,000 people suffering from DHF/DSS were hospitalized over a five-month period. Dengue surveillance, which has begun recently in the Dominican Republic, indicates considerable dengue transmission and the circulation of at least three dengue serotypes. This circulation of multiple serotypes, combined with the presence of large populations of Aedes aegypti, a mosquito that transmits dengue, pose a serious threat of continued outbreaks and the emergence of DHF/DSS in the Dominican Republic. The contingency plan describes the medical emergency requirements a

Districts, regions and facilities the program's own documents name, with what the document says it did there. Source: sentences in the program's documents
Districts, regions and facilities named in the program's own documents, not verified sites. Place dots exist for Malawi and Guatemala only so far.
Sample Built from district names in Malawi documents while the full place data loads; it is not yet the finished place list.
Solid: the documents describe the program's work there. Faint: named in the program's documents. Bigger means more mentions. Shown: region or province, district; squares are facilities.
Countries where this program operated, set by the countries its documents name most often. Countries only tagged on documents are listed apart. Source: document tags, scope rule
Scope: global. How the scope was set is not described yet. High confidence.
How sure we are: 0.95.
When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate. Source: award and document years
Axis: award years, end from years in documents. The start year comes from award fiscal year; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
Who started the program, and which administration it began under. Timing only; it does not say who started it. Source: initiative records, start year
