A Spatial Model to Describe the Dengue Propagation1
... Abstract. Dengue is a human disease transmitted by the mosquito Aedes aegypti. A dengue epidemic could start when infectious individuals (humans or mosquitoes) appear and could propagate in areas previously colonized by the mosquitoes. In this work, we propose a model to study the dengue propagation ...
