Eliminating <i>Aedes aegypti</i> from its southern margin in Australia: insights from genomic data and simulation modeling

2021-08-22

Abstract excerpt

A rare example of a successful long-term elimination of the mosquito Aedes aegypti is in Brisbane, Queensland, where the legislatively-enforced removal of rainwater tanks drove its disappearance by the mid-1950s. However, a decade-long drought led to the mass installation of rainwater tanks throughout the region, re-introducing critical breeding sites for the mosquito’s persistence in this subtropical region.
