Mosquito-based arbovirus surveillance data are useful in tracking virus activity. The most basic form of mosquito-based surveillance data presentation and that currently used by CDCs ArboNET system is the number of positive mosquito pools found in collections of a particular mosquito species over a defined time period and area. CDC encourages surveillance programs to routinely incorporate a more informative index of relative virus activity, the virus infection rate (IR), into their mosquito-based evaluation of local virus activity patterns. At the county level or below, weekly tracking of mosquito IR can provide important predictive indicators of transmission activity levels associated with elevated human risk.
