In an effort to address problems surrounding vector-borne pathogens, we have dedicated a series of Forum Articles for a special issue of the Journal of Medical Entomology entitled “Emerging and Lesser-Known Arboviruses Impacting Animal and Human Health”. It is our hope that that this series of articles written by subject matter experts will further contribute to our understanding of these lesser-known arboviruses for the benefit of vector control personnel, clinicians, and public health stewards within a One Health approach.
The Journal of Medical Entomology is pleased to publish a special collection on eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV), a mosquito-borne virus that causes a rare, but highly lethal, illness in humans and horses. The virus is a growing public health threat in the United States. The papers featured in this collection address the history of EEEV, viral infections found in various areas of the United States, taxonomy and genomics, vaccine development, and more.
Since 1958, the Medical, Urban and Veterinary Entomology (MUVE) Section (formerly Section D) of the Entomological Society of America has devoted a significant portion of the ESA annual meeting to the Highlights presentations that summarize important events in our field.
