Blue boxes indicate participant recruitment and enrolment activities undertaken at clinics. Yellow boxes indicate the laboratory diagnostic testing to be performed at the project laboratory, the results of which (white boxes) will be used to classify participants (grey boxes) as virologically confirmed dengue, Zika or chikungunya cases, arbovirus-negative controls, or excluded due to inability to rule out arbovirus infection according to the algorithm shown. DENV: dengue virus; CHIKV: chikungunya virus; ZIKV: Zika virus; PCR: polymerase chain reaction; NS1: non-structural protein 1; ELISA: enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; IgM/IgG: immunoglobulin M/G.
