According to the WHO, dengue is the fastest-spreading vector-borne disease worldwide11
By 2080, it is estimated that more than 6.1 billion people could be at risk of dengue infection (60% of the world's population) due to increasing urbanization, population growth, climate change and an increase in air travel12
