Mosquito-free school program for preventing dengue fever
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study tests whether a program to reduce mosquitoes in and around schools can help prevent dengue fever in students. Participating schools will use special methods to control mosquito populations, and researchers will track how well it works.
