Investigation of severe dengue outbreak in Maumere, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia: Clinical, serological, and virological features
The severe dengue outbreak in Maumere is caused by DENV-3 introduced from nearby islands. The high proportion of secondary infections likely contributes to the severity of the disease. The high percentage of anti-dengue neutralizing antibodies for multiple serotypes and the high proportion of anti-dengue IgG in young children suggests a history of dengue transmission with a high infection rate in the area.
