Dengue Haunts South America鈥檚 Summers

Dengue, a viral infection transmitted by mosquitoes, is spreading rapidly across Latin America, with over one million suspected cases in the first months of the year, as climate change creates favorable conditions for the spread of the potentially deadly disease. In addition to traditional prevention efforts, governments are scrambling to develop innovative solutions, such as the use of bacteria that inhibit disease transmission by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes.
