Abstract | The purpose of this study is to assess the potential for using seasonal climate forecasts in an early warning system (EWS) for dengue fever incidence in Brazil. Data at heterogeneous spatial scales were combined in a negative binomial model using dengue fever data at the microregion level for the period January 2001- April 2008, gridded observed climate data with time lags relevant to dengue transmission and other socio-economic and environmental covariates. The same model was then refitted replacing observed climate with seasonal climate forecasts of the same variables issued 5 months previous to the dengue month of interest. Predictions from both models were tested by using the first 7 years as a training dataset to predict the first 4 months of 2008 when a dengue epidemic occurred in Brazil. Both models were able to capture high dengue incidence along the densely populated eastern coast of Brazil and low incidence in the South. The models did not perform so well in the Amazon region. We conclude that seasonal climate forecasts could have potential value in the context of a dengue EWS to predict the climatic conditions that may influence dengue incidence up to 5 months ahead of an epidemic in Brazil. |
