The
study's goal was to characterise the time series and trends for the Aedes
aegypti mosquito's focality in Villa Clara province, Cuba, by months and years
(2007-2017). In Cuba, the prevalence of these parasitic and viral diseases is
unquestionably a public health issue, with a propensity to increase the number
of patients as well as vector organism populations. The study looked at the
province's 13 municipalities and the number of breeding sites they reported
during the various months of the study period. An observational, descriptive,
ecological, retrospective, and statistical investigation was carried out, with
all data acquired from the participants. Work cycles for vector surveillance
and control in the universe of dwellings and buildings in the 13 municipalities'
urban regions have been developed. With the help of the Windows Excel
application, the data was organised by years and months. The data was processed
using the SPSS statistical programme version 19.0 (the ENTER and ERROR
techniques). The municipalities of Santa Clara, Ranchuelo, Placetas,
Manicaragua, Santo Domingo, and Sagua la Grande were determined to have the
highest absolute frequency (Fi), which is quite comparable to the cumulative
relative frequency (fai), with minor differences in respect to the
municipalities' positions. The Ae. a vector's focality, as measured in months, July
through November were the months with the greatest focality, showing a direct
proportional relationship with the one recorded provincially. The conclusion is
that there exist natural and anthropogenic factors in Cuba that support the
creation and maintenance of the Ae. a vector focality all year.
