Validation of an engineered Zika virus-like particle vaccine candidate in a mosquito-mouse transmission model
2022-08-08
Abstract excerpt
The primary route of Zika virus (ZIKV) transmission is through the bite of an infected Aedes mosquito, when it probes the skin of a vertebrate host during a blood meal. Viral particles are injected into the bite site together with mosquito saliva and a complex mixture of other components.
