ABSTRACT
An analytic cases-controls study of 116 institutions from Santiago de Cuba municipality was carried out during June, 2011, to identify the decisive macrofactors in the infestation indexes due to
Aedes aegypti in low and high deposits, cisterns and other water reservoirs without hermetic conditions which become mosquitoes generating focuses. For this purpose, 48 institutions with hatcheries (cases) and 96 without them (2 controls per case), were selected, besides the macrofactors: the workers and the community behaviors, environmental and organizational agents of the institution and of the National Program for the Eradication of the Mosquito
Aedes aegypti. In the series the results were validated by means of the relative opportunity, the attributable risk in exposed percentage and the difference of means, which allowed to conclude that the appropriate control of the low deposits and high unprotected deposits, the focus institution detection, the cleaning and unsobstruction of flues and drainages, the deserted grounds or grassed fields, as well as the increase in quality of the work of the operators A, could reduce the infestation in these institutions.
