2024年9月27日 · Dengue viruses are spread to people through the bites of infected Aedes species mosquitoes (Ae. aegypti or Ae. albopictus). These are the same types of mosquitoes that spread Zika and chikungunya viruses. These mosquitoes typically lay eggs in containers that hold water, like buckets, bowls, animal dishes, flowerpots, and vases.

Can any type of mosquito carry dengue? The dengue virus is carried and spread by mosquitoes in the genus Aedes, which includes a number of mosquito species. Of these species, the...

Symptoms of dengue usually begin within 2 weeks after being bitten by an infected mosquito. Symptoms typically last 2–7 days. Most people will recover after about a week. Dengue transmission is common in tropical and subtropical areas of the world. Keep Reading: Areas with Risk of Dengue.

2025年1月24日 · A new research review examines how carrying dengue virus affects Aedes aegypti mosquitoes' life cycle and behavior and whether the virus manipulates its mosquito host—or if changes are byproducts of other factors.

Dengue spreads where Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are present. This mosquito is commonly found in and around homes, where it breeds in small water containers. When an Aedes aegypti mosquito bites someone with dengue, it can become infected and transmit the virus to another person when it bites again.

Our research shows that in communities where high levels of Wolbachia-carrying mosquitoes are the incidence of dengue and other Aedes-borne diseases is significantly reduced.

Some dengue vectors (Aedes mosquitoes) can be transinfected with specific strains of Wolbachia, which decreases their fitness (ability to survive and mate) and their ability to reproduce, inhibiting the replication of dengue.

2018年2月25日 · Our findings provide the first evidence of how chemical compounds found in body odour can be used to develop effective bait traps to control dengue and chikungunya. Studies have shown that the...

2024年4月10日 · The included trial demonstrates the potential significant impact of wMel-Wolbachia-carrying Ae aegypti mosquitoes on preventing dengue infection in an endemic setting, and supports evidence reported in non-randomized and uncontrolled studies.

2024年8月7日 · Dengue is a viral disease that can cause severe illness in some people. Reported dengue cases have doubled in 2024. It's spread by mosquitoes, so protect yourself by preventing insect bites and dumping out standing water where mosquitoes lay eggs.
