Main text
Oropouche virus (OROV) is an arthropod-borne pathogen of the genus Orthobunyavirus, family Peribunyaviridae, Orthobunyavirus oropoucheense species. This virus is maintained in nature in a sylvatic cycle that still needs to be well defined. However, there is evidence of the participation of forest mosquitoes like Aedes serratus and Coquillettidia venezuelensis and mammals such as sloths and non-human primates as key reservoirs. On the other hand, biting midges (Culicoides paraensis) are considered the primary vector of the urban cycle, although Culex quinquefasciatusmosquitoes have already been implicated in OROV transmission (1). In the last 70 years, at least 30 human outbreaks of OROV have been reported in Latin American countries (Brazil, Peru, Colombia, French Guiana, and Panama). Due to the recurrent resurgence of OROV in human populations of the Amazon region and the notable increase in the incidence and geographical spread of reported OROV infections in recent years, it is one of the most significant emerging arboviral threats in Latin America (2). ...
