🚨 Oropouche virus (OROV) is spreading in Brazil! In our study, we assessed Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus as vectors.
🦟 Both species were refractory to oral infection, suggesting natural transmission is unlikely.

🚨 Dengue is rising in Brazil! We analyzed 5 Aedes aegypti populations 🇧🇷 infected with DENV-1.
🦟 High infection rates, but transmission varies.
➡️ Local control strategies are key!
