El Salvador: Dangerous Mutation of Aedes Aegypti Discovered
San Salvador, Oct 30 (Prensa Latina) Salvadoran scientists discovered an alarming mutation of the Aedes Aegypti mosquito, able to reproduce in dirty water and not exclusively in clean water, as was believed so far.
This discovery was confirmed by the Center for Health Research and Development (CENSALUD) at the University of El Salvador (UES) and recognized by the Deputy Minister of Health, Eduardo Espinosa, reported La Prensa Grafica newspaper.
This mutation could cause an increment in new dengue cases, in the light of the possible reproduction of the mosquito in the stagnant waters left by the rains that fell from Oct. 10 to 19.
The Aedes Aegypti has muted its DNA due to environmental factors, which are present in El Salvador, explained Stanley Rodriguez Aquino, a researcher at the Censalud-UES.
