The objectives of Dengue v2V include:

  • Documenting the human and economic burden of dengue
  • Providing guidance regarding vaccine adoption strategies based on clinical, epidemiological and other technical data

About the Dengue v2V initiative

Dengue v2V is a scientific forum comprising international experts in dengue and public health from across North and South America, Europe, and Asia.

Dengue v2V was established in June 2009 and is supported by an unrestricted educational grant from sanofi pasteur.(4)
