Arboviruses, or arthropod-borne viruses, are a family of viruses that are transmitted by arthropod vectors such as mosquitoes, ticks, and sandflies. Some of these viruses are known to cause severe diseases, such as viral hemorrhagic fevers or viral meningitis\/encephalitis.<\/p>

Dengue, yellow fever, chikungunya, and Zika are among the most commonly reported arboviral infections globally. Dengue is considered the most significant arboviral disease, with an estimated 400 million cases occurring annually.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
