“…More than 50 million dengue fever (DF) cases occur each year worldwide, resulting in ≈24,000 deaths annually [1]. In Mexico, ≈550,000 cases of DF and ≈165,000 cases of severe dengue were reported from 1990 to 2020 [2]. The mosquito Aedes aegypti is the primary vector of dengue virus and it has evolved to mate, feed, rest, and lay eggs in and around urban and rural households.…”

Aedes aegypti control programs require more sensitive tools in order to survey domestic and peridomestic larval habitats for dengue and other arbovirus prevention areas. As a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, field technicians have faced a new occupational hazard during their work activities in dengue surveillance and control. Safer strategies to monitor larval populations, in addition to minimum householder contact, are undoubtedly urgently needed. Drones can be part of the solution in urban and rural areas that are dengue-endemic. Throughout this study, the proportion of larvae breeding sites found in the roofs and backyards of houses were assessed using drone images. Concurrently, the traditional ground field technician’s surveillance was utilized to sample the same house groups. The results were analyzed in order to compare the effectiveness of both field surveillance approaches. Aerial images of 216 houses from El Vergel village in Tapachula, Chiapas, Mexico, at a height of 30 m, were obtained using a drone. Each household was sampled indoors and outdoors by vector control personnel targeting all the containers that potentially served as Aedes aegypti breeding sites. The main results were that the drone could find 1 container per 2.8 found by ground surveillance; however, containers that were inaccessible by technicians in roofs and backyards, such as plastic buckets and tubs, disposable plastic containers and flowerpots were more often detected by drones than traditional ground surveillance. This new technological approach would undoubtedly improve the surveillance of Aedes aegypti in household environments, and better vector control activities would therefore be achieved in dengue-endemic countries.

“…Despite these limitations, our study supports that the initial introduction of Zika to this region, contributed importantly to the GBS outbreak observed during 2015-2016. First, the abrupt increase of cases of GBS, was temporally and geographically associated with the introduction of the Zika virus, locally, over a stable background of dengue endemicity https://doi.org/10.1017/S0950268822001625 Published online by Cambridge University Press [14,15]. Furthermore, dengue was limited to a low circulation in the Tapachula region from 2014 to 2016 (Figure 1B).…”

Guillain-Barré syndrome outbreak in Tapachula temporally associated with the Zika virus introduction in Southern Mexico

et al. 2022

The Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) has been previously associated with Zika virus infection. We analyzed the data from all the patients with GBS diagnosis that were admitted to a referral hospital, in Tapachula City during the period from January 2013 to August 2016, comparing the incidence of GBS according to the temporality of the Zika outbreak in Southern Mexico. Additionally, we described the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of the GBS patients admitted before or after the Zika outbreak. We observed a sharp increase in the number of patients hospitalized due to GBS from the time the first confirmed Zika cases appeared in Mexico. Clinically we observed GBS cases before zika outbreak had more frequently history of respiratory/gastrointestinal symptoms and GBS during zika outbreak had significantly more frequently recent history of rash/conjunctivitis. Although we cannot affirm that the increased cases of GBS have a specific etiologic association with Zika, our results suggest that this observed outbreak of in Tapachula, might have been associated to the emerging Zika epidemic, locally and suggests that rare complications associated with acute infections (such as GBS) might be useful in the surveillance systems for emerging infections.

“…22 Factores como calentamiento global, deficiente tratamiento de agua, así como el incremento poblacional, migración y movimientos humanos han provocado aumento en el riesgo en su transmisión. 23 Dentro de nuestra unidad hospitalaria se logró el diagnóstico de cinco recién nacidos confirmando transmisión vertical, sólo en uno de ellos no se identifica el serotipo por haber realizado el estudio en medio particular. La evolución clínica en los cinco www.medigraphic.org.mx casos fue similar a la encontrada en paciente con sepsis neonatal temprana y tardía, por lo cual hace que su diagnóstico sea por exclusión y sospecha de antecedente de infección materna, siendo su diagnóstico dentro de los primeros siete días de vida.…”
