ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0140-6736(00)04137-4 | Abstract: | The resurgence of dengue in Singapore since 1986 had been associated with an adult predominance and a very low incidence in children. No study had been carried out to investigatethis finding. Here we report a serological studyof 1068 children aged 0 to 15 years. There is a significantrise in seroconversion in children aged 6 years and older coinciding with the start of formal schooling. This suggests that there may be a change in the location where dengueis acquired. | Source Title: | Lancet | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/31242 | ISSN: | 01406736 | DOI: | 10.1016/S0140-6736(00)04137-4 |
