93rd issue of the "Lettre de l'Institut Pasteur" out now!

The latest issue of the quarterly newsletter for Institut Pasteur donors - the "Lettre de l'Institut Pasteur" (LIP) - contains a special feature on Aedes albopictus and Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. These two species are infamous for their ability to transmit yellow fever, dengue, chikungunya and Zika virus disease, resulting in the deaths of approximately 60,000 people each year. This feature describes the infections caused by the viruses spread by these insect vectors, the methods currently being used to combat them and the work of scientists at the Institut Pasteur today to tackle these mosquitoes, which have proved resistant to both pollution and insecticides.
