The role of vector population variation and climate in Zika virus transmission patterns in Africa: a modelling study

1 Dec 2024

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Zika virus (ZIKV) outbreaks have raised major global health concerns recently, yet reported outbreaks are rare in Africa, where ZIKV was first discovered. Recent studies on Aedes aegypti, the mosquito that transmits ZIKV, might explain this phenomenon. The Ae aegypti subspecies present in Africa shows lower preference for biting humans and reduced susceptibility to ZIKV infection compared with the...
