TLDR
The utility of urine in detecting YF virus, a promising improvement in diagnostics, and the potential of viral shedding in the urinary tract are illustrated, which parallels the detection of viral RNA in urine samples of Zika virus-infected persons.About:

Yellow fever control: current epidemiology and vaccination strategies.
TL;DR: YF vaccination is the mainstay in controlling YF outbreaks, but global supply is insufficient, and dose-sparing strategies have been proposed including fractional dosing and intradermal administration, and novel methods are being considered and proposed.

A Review: Wolbachia-Based Population Replacement for Mosquito Control Shares Common Points with Genetically Modified Control Approaches.
Pei-Shi Yen,Anna-Bella Failloux +1 more
TL;DR: The properties of the Wolbachia strategy as an approach to control mosquito populations in comparison with genetically modified control methods are reviewed, finding both strategies tend to limit arbovirus infections but increase the risk of selecting arbavirus escape mutants, rendering these strategies less reliable.

TL;DR: Genetic, epidemiological and demographic characteristic of predominately urban transmission of DENV2 in Angola is described and coalescent models suggest relatively moderately rapid epidemic growth rates and doubling times, and a moderate expansion of Denver virus serotype 2 in Angola during the studied period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Yellow Fever: A Brief History of a Tropical Virosis.
TL;DR: In the early 21st century, epidemiologists are worried about these resurgences, especially since we still have no indisputable explanation for the absence of the disease on the Asian continent as discussed by the authors .

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compile the largest contemporary database for both species and pair it with relevant environmental variables predicting their global distribution, showing Aedes distributions to be the widest ever recorded; now extensive in all continents, including North America and Europe.

Live Attenuated Yellow Fever 17D Vaccine: A Legacy Vaccine Still Controlling Outbreaks In Modern Day.
TL;DR: Limited studies hinder identification of the underlying mechanism(s) of vaccine longevity; however, concurrent outbreaks during 2016 provide an opportunity to evaluate vaccine immunity following fractional dosing and insights into vaccine longevity in populations where there is limited information.
