Exact excerpt

Fifteen clusters were randomised: 8 clusters received deployments of male wAlbB-SG infected Ae. aegypti ... and 7 clusters received no deployments ... Six months after releases began, intervention clusters showed reductions in total dengue incidence, ranging from 27.6% ... to 83.8% ... This protective effect varied across time, with some attenuation observed during the 2023 inter-epidemic period. We estimated that 2351 cases ... were averted over the period of the trial.
