Dear all,
I was just talking with someone about the threat of getting viruses from
mosquito bites. Can for example HIV and hepatitis C be transfered from
one person to another through such bites? Does any virus use this method
of transfer as its main route? What is the main difference in viruses
that are able to use mosquitoes as vectors compared to those that
can't,are they more stable or just more efficient at infecting a new host?
Kind regards,
