  • Title: Mayaro virus in wild mammals, French Guiana.
    Author: de Thoisy B, Gardon J, Salas RA, Morvan J, Kazanji M.
    Journal: Emerg Infect Dis; 2003 Oct; 9(10):1326-9. PubMed ID: 14609474.
    Abstract:
    A serologic survey for Mayaro virus (Alphavirus, Togaviridae) in 28 wild nonflying forest mammal species in French Guiana showed a prevalence ranging from 0% to 52% and increasing with age. Species active during the day and those who spent time in trees were significantly more infected, results consistent with transmission implicating diurnal mosquitoes and continuous infectious pressure.
