Vector presence

GBIF occurrence records for the 7 principal vectors. A count is records, not abundance.
3 of 7 recorded
Read this honestly
GBIF is presence-only and effort-biased. A 0 / no record means no occurrence has been digitised for Indonesia, not that the species is absent, under-surveyed countries look emptier than they are. Country-level presence is the reliable layer.

Disease burden

Null is not zero
No data means the indicator is not reported or the disease is not endemic, it is never shown as 0. A real reported 0 is kept as 0. WHO GHO carries no global dengue dataset, Aedes-borne risk is proxied by competent-vector presence above, not case counts.

Risk classification

A Mosticare-derived first filter, competent-vector presence within the climatic band.

What this is not
The class combines vector presence with a coarse |latitude| ≤ 45 climatic envelope. It is a first filter for transmission plausibility, not a calibrated environmental-suitability model. Do not read it as measured risk.

Interventions in play

Engineered-intervention research targeting the vectors recorded in Indonesia. Global research activity, not trials on this country’s soil.
