Nepal

Dengue cases are reported from almost all of the districts in recent years which was previously reported from few districts, so based on this assumption can be made that aedes aegypti or albopictus are spreading to a wider geographical areas within the country, but since vector surveillance has not been conducted at national level it is difficult to say whether aedes aegypti or albopictus is most dominant.
