    (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2004) John-Paul Mutebi; Alberto Gianella; Amélia Travassos da Rosa; Robert B. Tesh; Alan D.T. Barrett; Stephen Higgs
    The absence of urban yellow fever virus (YFV) in Bolivian cities has been attributed to the lack of competent urban mosquito vectors. Experiments with Aedes aegypti from Santa Cruz, Bolivia, demonstrated infection (100%), dissemination (20%), and transmission of a Bolivian YFV strain (CENETROP-322).
