Entomologic surveillance conducted for arboviral infections in mosquito vectors in the past two years (ref Q28)

Countries that conducted entomologic surveillance included Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Timor-Leste. Countries that did not included Indonesia, Myanmar, Nepal. did not respond.

Frequency and scope of entomologic surveillance (ref Q28c, 28d, 28e)

Country	Response	Geographic scope	Comments
Bangladesh	Every trimester	Restricted to specific locations (3 sentinel sites)	In Divisional Towns
Bhutan	Monthly surveillance is conducted in high-risk areas for dengue and supplemented with spot surveys in areas with low risk for transmission of arboviral diseases	Country wide (4 sentinel sites)	Yearly in high risk mapping of vectors. Weekly cluster surveillance in peak season and once at initial before start of peak.
India	it depends upon the states , somewhere monthly or in some cities on weekly	Restricted to specific locations	There are 103 entomological zones in the country besides state vector borne disease control program.
Indonesia
Maldives
Myanmar

Sri Lanka	Once a month	Country wide (34 sentinel sites)
Thailand	Every trimester	Country wide (13 sentinel sites)
Timor-Leste	Sentinel vector surveillance happened once (2-3 years ago)	Country wide (5 sentinel sites)

Minimum infection rate (MIR) calculations for any Aedes-borne arboviruses (ref Q32)

Country	Response	Comments
Bangladesh	No
Bhutan	No	We look for containers index and household index for larvae and calculate the risk
