Aedes aegypti mosquitoes infected with the wMel strain of Wolbachia pipientis are less susceptible than wild-type A. to dengue virus infection.We conducted a cluster-randomized trial involving releases wMel-infected for control in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. We randomly assigned 12 geographic clusters receive deployments (intervention clusters) and no (control clusters). All practiced local mosquito-control measures as usual. A test-negative design was used assess efficacy intervention. Patients...
