Information on autochthonous vectorial transmission of dengue in mainland EU/EEA, including location, period, number of cases, virus serotype and mode of transmission.
The ECDC updates are based on available data reported through the European Surveillance System (TESSy) by the national public health authorities of EU/EEA countries.
ECDC is organising a physical workshop between 16 and 18 April 2024 with national experts to develop a public health guidance to support the assessment of the risk of locally-acquired Aedes-borne viral diseases in the EU/EEA.
Prevalence data from sources such as population surveys can be a useful complement to case based surveillance data for hepatitis C. Case-based surveillance has limitations as most diagnosed cases are chronic in nature and detection of cases depends largely on testing practices. Prevalence data can therefore contribute towards a fuller understanding of the epidemiology of hepatitis C.
