Just look at the map of Singapore. It doesn't matter how hard they try, there is malay jungle maybe 1km from the city. Unless its getting the same treatment for another 10km from the border, or they somehow raise star trek shields between it, little buggers can easily find their way to the city even if city itself is sterilized.

Singapore had 8 thousand cases in 2022. Brazil has 3 million cases of dengue in 2024.Is not the same thing. The poor distribution of water and the lack of sewage are fundamental to dengue fever in Brazil.

I'm sure those are all factors but don't you think that the thousands of miles of jungle also places a factor?

Not if dengue is an urban phenomenon.
