Query: Effect of active case finding on dengue control: Implications from a
  mathematical model   Dengue control in India is a challenging task due to complex healthcare
settings. In yesteryears, an amplification of dengue infections in India posed
the need for introspection of existing dengue control policies. Prior
understanding of the impacts of control interventions is necessary for their
future implementation. In this paper, we propose and analyze a compartmental
model of dengue to assess the impact of active case finding (ACF) on dengue
disease transmission. Currently, primary prevention of dengue is possible only
with vector control and personal protection from the bites of infected
mosquitoes. Although a few experimental studies are performed to assess ACF in
dengue disease, but this is the first attempt to represent and study the
dynamics of disease using ACF as a control strategy. Local and global dynamics
of the system are studied. We use sensitivity analysis to see the effects of
controllable parameters of the model on the basic reproduction number and total
number of infective population. We find that decrease in the biting rate of
mosquitoes, and increase in the rate of hospitalization and/or notification,
death rate of mosquitoes and ACF for asymptomatic and symptomatic individuals
play crucial role for the reduction of disease prevalence. We calibrate our
model to the yearly dengue cases in eight dengue endemic states of India. The
results of our study show that ACF of symptomatic individuals will have
significant effect on dengue case reduction but ACF of asymptomatic individuals
cannot be ignored. Our findings indicate that the healthcare organizations must
focus on ACF of symptomatic as well as asymptomatic individuals along with
personal protection and mosquitoes control to achieve rapid reduction of dengue
cases in India.
