There was a dengue fever outbreak in mainland China in 2019, with 15,187 indigenous cases in 13 provinces, 1281 domestic imported cases from 12 provinces and 5778 overseas imported cases from 47 countries, more than the previous cases during the period 2005\u20132018, except for in 2014. Indigenous cases occurred in Sichuan, Hubei and Chongqing in 2019. There have been big changes in the spatial distribution and proportion of dengue cases. Indigenous cases were not only located in the southwestern border and southeastern coastal provinces of Yunnan, Guangdong, Guangxi and Fujian but also in the central provinces of Jiangxi and Chongqing. Domestic imported cases were not only from Guangdong, but also from Yunnan. There were five new sources of importation of cases. Overseas imported cases were mainly from Cambodia and Myanmar in 2019. Understanding the new spatial characteristics of dengue fever in China helps to formulate targeted, strategic plans and implement effective public health prevention and control measures.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph18062855","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,11]],"date-time":"2021-03-11T05:38:22Z","timestamp":1615441102000},"page":"2855","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":33,"title":["Spatial Dynamics of Dengue Fever in Mainland China, 2019"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Yujuan","family":"Yue","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, State Key Laboratory of Infectious Disease Prevention and Control, National Institute for Communicable, Disease Control and Prevention, Beijing 102206, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0420-2529","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xiaobo","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, State Key Laboratory of Infectious Disease Prevention and Control, National Institute for Communicable, Disease Control and Prevention, Beijing 102206, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dongsheng","family":"Ren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, State Key Laboratory of Infectious Disease Prevention and Control, National Institute for Communicable, Disease Control and Prevention, Beijing 102206, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Haixia","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, State Key Laboratory of Infectious Disease Prevention and Control, National Institute for Communicable, Disease Control and Prevention, Beijing 102206, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qiyong","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, State Key Laboratory of Infectious Disease Prevention and Control, National Institute for Communicable, Disease Control and Prevention, Beijing 102206, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1423","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMra1110265","article-title":"Dengue","volume":"366","author":"Simmons","year":"2012","journal-title":"N.
