In preparation for the 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Tokyo, a training drill for controlling dengue mosquito vector was held at Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden in September 2019. The training drill aimed to confirm the network and cooperation among related organizations when pathogenic arboviruses are detected in mosquito vectors. This training was also expected to be applied in case that local transmission of dengue was confirmed. These organizations included garden management office; municipal health centers; pest control organization; insecticide suppliers; Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare; Ministry of the Environment; and National Institute of Infectious Diseases. On the training day, >160 participants gathered for confirmation of the evacuation process and demonstration of dengue mosquito vector control with insecticides. This article outlines the training procedure that can be used as a reference point for future training drills conducted at related organizations as well as in case that we face to actual epidemics.
