  abstract = {{I}n the {L}ao {PDR} ({L}aos), urban dengue is an increasingly recognised public health problem. {W}e describe a dengue-1 virus outbreak in a rural northwestern {L}ao forest village during the cool season of 2008. {T}he isolated strain was genotypically "endemic" and not "sylvatic," belonging to the genotype 1, {A}sia 3 clade. {P}hylogenetic analyses of 37 other dengue-1 sequences from diverse areas of {L}aos between 2007 and 2010 showed that the geographic distribution of some strains remained focal overtime while others were dispersed throughout the country. {E}vidence that dengue viruses have broad circulation in the region, crossing country borders, was also obtained. {W}hether the outbreak arose from dengue importation from an urban centre into a dengue-naive community or crossed into the village from a forest cycle is unknown. {M}ore epidemiological and entomological investigations are required to understand dengue epidemiology and the importance of rural and forest dengue dynamics in {L}aos.},
