Rhesus macaques previously infected with dengue or
yellow fever viruses appear to be neither more nor less susceptible to severe infection with Zika virus, according to new research published in PLOS Pathogens.
Though this study,
appearing Oct. 20 in Cell Host Microbe, focused on the hepatitis C
virus, it also mapped the presence of these tags in other members of the same viral family, including Zika, dengue, West Nile and
yellow fever virus.
