The interaction of dengue cases between climatic factors and air pollutants in Peninsular Malaysia / Mohamad Khushairi Muhd Nor

Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus had caused dengue in tropical and subtropical regions. Vector control is used for minimizing dengue cases, unfortunately, it relies on climatic and environmental variables which introduce the complex relationship in analysing dengue cases. Thus, this study aims in...
