Abstract:
Abstract: More than 300 mosquito-borne arboviruses have been found worldwide, among which Dengue virus, Chikungunya virus, Japanese encephalitis virus, West Nile virus, and Zika virus are circulating around the world, causing a huge public health burden and arousing widespread concern in the whole society. China's vast territory and complex geographical landscapes are suitable for the reproduction of various mosquito-borne arboviruses, so the species and geographical distribution of mosquito-borne arboviruses in China have attracted much attention. Since the 1980s, 38 mosquito-borne arboviruses belonging to nine families, including Flaviviridae, Bunyaviridae, Togaviridae, and Reoviridae, have been isolated and identified from more than 1 million mosquitoes and human and animal specimens collected across China by means of tissue cell culture and animal inoculation. The results of field and laboratory tests indicate the existence of various mosquito-borne arboviral diseases in China, including Japanese encephalitis, Dengue fever, West Nile encephalitis, and febrile diseases caused by Tahyna virus infection. This study summarizes the species and geographical distribution of mosquito-borne arboviruses, mosquito-borne arboviruses, and their vectors, and mosquito-borne arboviral infectious diseases in China, providing technical support for the control and prevention of mosquito-borne arbovirus and their corresponding diseases, endemic management, disease early warning and prediction. Joint prevention and control of arboviral diseases in Asia and even the world is also of long-term and practical significance.
