Main Article

Figure 2

VCD and laboratory confirmed chikungunya incidence by temporospatial characteristics, Brazil, 2016–2021. Incidence per 100 person-years of VCD is shown regardless of serotype (A), VCD by DENV serotypes DENV-1 and DENV-2 (B), and laboratory-confirmed chikungunya (C) among participants in the placebo arm of the DEN-03-IB trial of a live attenuated tetravalent dengue vaccine, Butantan-DV, by temporospatial characteristic (geographic region and study year). Points represent incidence estimates and error bars represent 95% CIs. Dashed lines represent the overall incidence per 100 person-years and shaded areas around the dashed lines represent 95% CIs for the overall incidence estimates. CW, Center-West; DENV, dengue virus; N, North; NE, Northeast; S, South; SE, Southeast; VCD, virologically confirmed dengue.
