Table 3. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) for low and high dengue incidence yearsa.
Intervention cost per child per year | ||||||

Intervention effectiveness | $2.5 | $5 | $10 | $2.5 | $5 | $10 |

(all ICERs are in US $ per DALY averted for the year 2012).
Values represent ICERs expressed as cost per DALY averted. Boldface font indicates scenarios that were cost-effective (ICER≤$16,440). Underlined entries in boldface font are scenarios in which the intervention was the dominant strategy (i.e. less costly and more effective than no intervention alternative).
