[Current situation of the Aedes aegypti mosquito in the metropolitan area of Panama city].
Ae. aegypti was reintroduced into Panama in 1985; control was unsuccessful and by 1988 Ae. aegypti larvae were detected in every borough of Panama Metropolitan Area. Only 3% of the Panama City population has dengue antibody (against DEN 2) and virtually no one is immune to other serotypes. The relative risk of the introduction of Dengue virus into Panama is discussed.
