Estabelecimento e transmissão crítica do vírus Zika no Brasil e nas Américas/Establishment and cryptic transmission of Zika virus in Brazil and the Americas

TL;DR: Analyses of viral genomes with ecological and epidemiological data yield an estimate that ZikV was present in northeast Brazil by February 2014 and is likely to have disseminated from there, nationally and internationally, before the first detection of ZIKV in the Americas.

Shifting patterns of dengue three years after Zika virus emergence in Brazil.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors show that while short-term crossprotection induced by ZIKV can explain the temporary disappearance of DENV, it also predicts, in contrast with observations, a rising mean age of Dengue virus (DENV) incidence in the post-ZIKV era.
