Vector-borne diseases (VBD): a major and global problem  17% of the estimated global burden of infectious diseases (> 700 000 deaths/year)  80% of the world's population is at risk of one or more vector-borne disease. Malaria, Lymphatic filariasis, dengue, leishmaniasis, japanese encephalitis, yellow fever, Chagas disease, human African trypanosomiasis and onchocerciasis WHO(2017) 2

Vector-borne diseases in the Americas Leishmaniasis Malaria Lymphatic filariasis • 21 countries • 19 countries • Endemic in 4 countries • 145 million at risk • 64,000 cases/year • 12.6 million at risk • 469,000cases (2012) • 7% fatality rate Chagas disease Yellow fever Dengue • 21 countries Since 2016: • 500 million at risk • 65 million at risk • 5 countries reporting • 2.3 million cases (2013) • 6-8 million cases • ~2210 cases • Hyperendemic • ~760 deaths Chikungunya West Nile Zika virus USA (1999-2011): • >43 countries/territories • 48 countries/territories • ~4 millions cases • > 1 million cases • > 750 000 cases • 1261 deaths Randolph & Rogers Nat Rev Microbiol (2010), PAHO(2019), WHO (2019), Espinal et al Rev Panam Salud Publica (2019)

Vector Control Integrated Vector Management (IVM) William Crawford Gorgas Rationale : optimal use of resources for vector control. Overcome the challenges experienced with single-intervention approaches Cost-effectiveness Sustainability Efficacy Ecological soundness WHO (2019), Vega-Rúa & Okeh (2019)

What have we learned? Major questions we should ask:  Was the strategy we used for chemical vector control appropriate? Which have been the results?  Did we collect all the needed data regarding vector populations before the interventions?  Do we know which strategies have worked the best and where?  Did we monitor the populations to see if adaptations or modifications of the strategies are needed?  Do we know how resistance evolved or may evolve? GAP GAP

Challenges of chemical vector control methods in the Caribbean GAP GAP  Legislation not adapted to local needs  Lack of standardized resistance Different vector Different legislations assessment and surveillance control strategies  “Isolation” - Information sharing (i.e. good practices, feedback)  Transfer of competence for capacity building  Networks (i.e. WIN)

Insecticide resistance can modify vector competence and behavior Insecticide resistance Behavior Vector competence  Activity (early or late biting)  Increase of biting events outdoors  Differential perception of human odors Susceptible Resistant Stanczyk et al. Sci Rep (2019) Carrasco et al Curr Op Ins Cont (2019) Alout et al. Plos One (2013) IVM strategies should evolve along with their vectors
