In 2013 there were reported as many as 2.35 million cases in America, of which 33,687 cases were severe dengue. (WHO, 2016). The case fatality rate (CFR) in the early years of dengue cases spreading in Indonesia was very high. Then from year to year it began to decline from 41.4% in 1968 and continued to decline to 0.89% in 2009.
