Dengue was first reported in Puerto Rico in 1899 and sporadically thereafter. Following outbreaks in 1963 and 1969, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has worked closely with the Puerto Rico Department of Health to monitor and reduce the public health burden of dengue. During that time, evolving epidemiologic scenarios have provided opportunities to establish, improve, and expand disease surveillance and interventional research projects. These initiatives have enriched the tools available to the global public health community to understand and combat dengue, including diagnostic tests, methods for disease and vector surveillance, and vector control techniques. Our review serves as a guide to organizations seeking to establish dengue surveillance and research programs by highlighting accomplishments, challenges, and lessons learned during more than a century of dengue surveillance and research conducted in Puerto Rico.
登革热于 1899 年首次在波多黎各报告，并在此后偶有发生。在 1963 年和 1969 年爆发疫情后，疾病控制与预防中心一直与波多黎各卫生部密切合作，监测和减少登革热对公众健康的负担。在此期间，不断变化的流行病学情况为建立、改进和扩大疾病监测和干预研究项目提供了机会。这些举措丰富了全球公共卫生界用来了解和防治登革热的工具，包括诊断测试、疾病和病媒监测方法以及病媒控制技术。我们的综述旨在为那些寻求建立登革热监测和研究计划的组织提供指导，重点介绍了在波多黎各开展一个多世纪的登革热监测和研究工作中取得的成就、面临的挑战和吸取的经验教训。
