Mosquito-borne viral diseases are a group of viral illnesses that are predominantly transmitted by mosquitoes, including viruses from the Togaviridae and Flaviviridae families. In recent years, outbreaks caused by Dengue and Zika viruses from the Flaviviridae family, and Chikungunya virus from the Togaviridae family, have raised significant concerns for public health. However, there are currently no safe and effective vaccines available for these viruses, except for CYD-TDV, which has been licensed for Dengue virus. Efforts to control the transmission of COVID-19, such as home quarantine and travel restrictions, have somewhat limited the spread of mosquito-borne viral diseases. Several vaccine platforms, including inactivated vaccines, viral-vector vaccines, live attenuated vaccines, protein vaccines, and nucleic acid vaccines, are being developed to combat these viruses. This review analyzes the various vaccine platforms against Dengue, Zika, and Chikungunya viruses and provides valuable insights for responding to potential outbreaks.

Background: Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne viral disease that poses significant health risks and socioeconomic challenges in Brazil, necessitating accurate forecasting across its 27 federal states. With the country's diverse climate and geographical spread, effective dengue prediction requires models that can account for both climate variations and spatial dynamics. This study addresses these needs by using Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks enhanced with SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) integrating optimal lagged climate variables and spatial influence from neighboring states.

Introduction: Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral disease. It has been associated with high maternal and foetal morbidity and mortality. Therefore, this study aimed to describe the outcomes of Dengue infection in pregnant women in terms of maternal bleeding, miscarriage, preterm delivery, severe Dengue, Dengue shock and maternal mortality, as well as foetal outcomes in terms of foetal distress, low birth weight and neonatal mortality.

Emerging and re-emerging mosquito-borne viruses pose a significant threat to global public health. Unfortunately, effective preventive and therapeutic measures are scarce. An in-depth understanding of the mechanisms regulating viral pathogenesis, vector competence, and viral transmission between mammalian hosts and vectors may lay the foundations for new preventive and therapeutic approaches.
