The natural and anthropized wetland of Gándaras de Budiño (Galicia, Spain) hosts a great number of mosquito species. Culex pipiens s.l. and Culex torrentium pose an emerging risk for West Nile virus transmission. The temporary and polluted waters, as well as the summer and spring seasons, favor the larval proliferation of these vectors.

Mapping of Aedes albopictus abundance at a local scale in Italy [PDF]
Given the growing risk of arbovirus outbreaks in Europe, there is a clear need to better describe the distribution of invasive mosquito species such as Aedes albopictus. Current challenges consist in simulating Ae. albopictus abundance, rather than its

ABSTRACT Emerging and important endemic viral diseases without effective antiviral are important public health threat. An effective broad‐spectrum antiviral can be a pivotal tool to mitigate future epidemics and provide a solution for endemic viral diseases. Molnupiravir, a pyrimidine analog, is known for the COVID‐19 treatment.

Human behaviors: a threat for mosquito control?
Community involvement and the preventive behavior of households are considered to be at the heart of vector-control strategies. In this work, we consider a simple theoretical model that enables us to take into account human behaviors that may interfere ...

Perinatal chikungunya in twins
We report a case of vertically transmitted chikungunya infection in heterozygous twin neonates presenting as seizures, encephalopathy, midfacial hyperpigmentation, anemia, and thrombocytopenia. This could be considered as a rare cause of neonatal seizure and identification would help in appropriate management.

The serine capsid protease (CP) catalyzes a crucial process of the alphaviral replication cycle; therefore, it constitutes an interesting therapy target. Herein, the O'nyong‐nyong virus CP profile activity with a specific fluorogenic substrate is analyzed and examines the inhibitory activity of a new series of phosphonic analogs of tryptophan and ...
