Description
This metadata refer to the dataset presenting the annual change in the basic reproduction number (R0) for chikungunya transmission in the period 1951-2021. The basic reproduction number of chikungunya from Aedes mosquitos is calculated using a model to capture the influence of temperature and rainfall on mosquito vectorial capacity and mosquito abundance, and overlaying it with human population density data to estimate the R0 (i.e., the expected number of secondary infections resulting from one infected person).
