ENY-736, a 3-page illustrated fact sheet by C. Roxanne Connelly, Christopher N. Mores, Chelsea T. Smartt, and Walter J. Tabachnick, describes this mosquito-borne virus, what it is, its symptoms, how its transmitted to humans, where it occurs, risk to Floridians, and how it can be prevented. Includes references.

Chikungunya vaccines in development [PDF]
Chikungunya virus has become a global health threat, spreading to the industrial world of Europe and the Americas; no treatment or prophylactic vaccine is available. Since the late 1960s much effort has been put into the development of a vaccine, and several heterogeneous strategies have already been explored.

A library of easily synthesizable CAPE analogs was screened in silico against the dengue virus envelope protein. Compound LQM778 showed stable binding and promising inhibitory potential. This study highlights LQM778 as a candidate for future in vitro validation and structural optimization toward accessible antiviral agents against dengue.

Wolbachia versus dengue: Evolutionary forecasts. [PDF]
A novel form of biological control is being applied to the dengue virus. The agent is the maternally transmitted bacterium Wolbachia, naturally absent from the main dengue vector, the mosquito Aedes aegypti.

Chikungunya Virus Infection [PDF]
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an alphavirus transmitted by mosquitoes, mostly Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. After half a century of focal outbreaks of acute febrile polyarthralgia in Africa and Asia, the disease unexpectedly spread in the past decade with large outbreaks in Africa and around the Indian Ocean and rare autochthonous transmission in ...
