Socioeconomic status and post-cyclone dengue Vulnerability: The mediating roles of knowledge and risk perception in Southern China

Key Points

Dengue vulnerability is significantly impacted by socioeconomic status, influencing adaptive practices post-cyclone.
Key mediators in reducing dengue risk include knowledge levels and environmental risk perception among individuals.
Assessment of individual behaviors highlights the importance of public health interventions to enhance protective actions.
Tailored interventions may significantly mitigate outbreak threats, particularly in economically vulnerable communities.

Abstract

Individual-level determinants, particularly adaptive practices and environmental risk perception, are critical mediators of post-cyclone dengue risk. Public health interventions should be tailored to bolster these protective behaviors, mitigating outbreak threats in vulnerable populations.
