Experimental Transmission of Mayaro Virus by Aedes aegypti [PDF]
Outbreaks of Mayaro fever have been associated with a sylvatic cycle of Mayaro virus (MAYV) transmission in South America. To evaluate the potential for a common urban mosquito to transmit MAYV, laboratory vector competence studies were performed with Aedes aegypti from Iquitos, Peru. Oral infection in Ae.

Water and Artisanal and Small‐Scale Gold Mining: A Review of the Literature
This paper reviews the relationships between artisanal and small‐scale gold mining (ASGM) and water. We show the variegated impacts ASGM has on water and, thus, socio‐ecological systems and health. We conclude by identifying gaps in the scholarship.
