Dengue Virus Seroprevalence in Mexico City Boroughs, 2022

2022 serological data from a study evaluating dengue virus seroprevalence among persons aged 5-35 years in four boroughs of Mexico City. The dataset contains disaggregated data using the methodology described in the associated 2025 journal publication. It was authored by JOSE RAMOS-CASTAÑEDA and shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Estimate population-level immunity to dengue virus based on seroprevalence data.
• Analyze age-stratified seropositivity rates within specific urban boroughs.
• Validate or calibrate dengue transmission models for Mexico City.
• Compare seroprevalence findings with other epidemiological indicators mentioned in the study.

Strengths

• Data is directly linked to a peer-reviewed 2025 journal publication, providing methodological context.
• The 54.8 KB XLSX file is a manageable size for quick inspection and analysis.
• Shared under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license, allowing for broad reuse.
