Charting the Proteins of Oropouche Virus

Viruses
Abstract The Oropouche virus (OROV) is responsible for the disease Oropouche fever, also known as sloth fever. This virus is currently endemic to the Americas and is transmitted primarily through midges and mosquitoes. Recently, an increase in cases has been noted among American and European tourists visiting Cuba, likely due to environmental ...
