#Zika was first identified in Uganda in 1947 in monkeys and was later identified in humans in 1952. The 2015 Zika epidemic was a reminder of how quickly flaviviruses can become significant public health threats. How well do you know flaviviruses? #MappingTheRisk flavivaccine.eu/flavivirus/

Flaviviruses are a large family of RNA viruses (Flaviviridae) causing diseases like Dengue, Zika, West Nile, Yellow Fever and Japanese Enchephalitis, spread by mosquitoes and then human-to-human via blood. How well do you know these viruses? #MappingTheRisk flavivaccine.eu/flavivirus/

As the #FLAVIVACCINE project approaches the end of its second year, the consortium has been actively promoting the further development of the flavivirus vaccine candidate. Our research activities will continue next year, and we will start with a new social media campaign on flaviviruses.
