Spatio-temporal clustering analysis of dengue disease in Peninsular Malaysia

ConclusionsFrom the results, there were significant spatial cluster, temporal cluster, and spatio-temporal clusters of dengue disease incidence in Peninsular Malaysia for 2015, 2016, and 2017. Results from spatial clustering focused on areas in Selangor as the dengue clustered area and results from temporal clustering revealed the weeks in October until December as the dengue clustered period. Meanwhile, the spatio-temporal clustering demonstrated that there exists another clustered region of high dengue disease incidence in different areas and time periods.
