Arboviruses - Introduction to Common Species of Insect-Borne Diseases

Arboviruses or arthropod-borne viruses are diseases transmitted by insect vectors and spread with bites of infected arthropods. Even though in most cases humans bitten by infected insects do not show any or only mild symptoms, some arboviruses may pose great danger to human health, causing epidemic diseases and fatal infections. Learn more about the viruses that enter the victim's circulation system during the insect's blood meal as well as the symptoms caused by the most common species of arthropod-borne viruses.
