Impact of simultaneous exposure to arboviruses on infection and transmission by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes

Several mosquito-transmitted viruses cocirculate in the Americas, but the potential for co-transmission is unknown. Here, Rückertet al. show that Aedes aegyptimosquitos have the potential to co-transmit chikungunya, dengue and Zika viruses and that coinfection does not overall affect dissemination o...
