Dengue cases in Argentina have increased by 1,800% compared to last season. The Ministry of Health is working on the inclusion of the new Qdenga vaccine in the official calendar.
Some provinces have already started vaccination with Qd Enga doses, but not with national contributions. This does not happen in Formosa and Chaco, two provinces with the worst figures. The vaccine has proven good effectiveness against the three serotypes of dengue. The risk is catching a different variant from the one associated with the problem.
