Dengue Epidemic Control in Malaysia- Challenges in Engineering Control

Abstract

In Malaysia, dengue fever has a high death rate, ranking as one of the most severe arthropod-borne infections that may be contracted. In Malaysia, the reproduction of dengue mosquitoes has developed into a significant problem for the country's public health. However, prevention efforts against the dengue fever pandemic must be started as soon as possible. In Malaysia, there are certain protocols to follow for the majority of difficulties, and both tropical and subtropical influences may be felt in Malaysia, particularly in the country's metropolitan and semi-urban areas. Dengue fever may be passed thru infection by bite of infected Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, specifically has recently fed on a person who is already infected with the disease. There is no transmission of dengue disease from one individual to another. It is only possible to get the disease by the bitten of infected mosquitoes only. The primary research problem begins with a current trend problem in the dengue epidemic, which is increasing day by day in Malaysia and necessitates a specific method of engineering control, particularly in improving the product to prevent the dengue epidemic. This presents a challenge for the researchers because need a proper engineering method of solution as a quickly as possible study. In addition, the primary focus of the research is on the rapid proliferation of Aedes mosquitoes due to the presence in engineering control. The purpose of this research is to find a way an Integrated Study of dengue prevention and engineering control method for aedes mosquitoes breeding to stop the spread of the dengue virus, which occurs when an infected Aedes mosquito bites a person and transmits the disease in certain dengue breeding locations, such as Selangor, Malaysia. Moreover, to battle aedes mosquitoes with the appropriate strategy and integration of engineering methods will help eliminate Aedes breeding spots phenomena. This study would then decrease the total number of dengue cases in the integrated study of dengue prevention in engineering control method for aedes mosquitoes breeding. The integration of engineering control will allow the machine to be improved following the most appropriate techniques and methods practiced in dengue vector control to decrease the number of cases that are becoming critical in Malaysia.
