Emergence of Zika virus: Direct reversion of mutations and fitness restoration prior to spread to the Americas

2020-06-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary Paragraph</h4> Mosquito-borne viruses have recently spread globally, with major impacts on human health. Zika virus (ZIKV) emerged from obscurity in 2013 to spread from Asia to the South Pacific and the Americas, where millions of people were infected. For the first time, severe clinical manifestations, including Guillain Barré syndrome and defects to the fetuses of pregnant women, were detected. Phyl...
