In COVID-19, Latest News by Precision Vaccinations

In 2023, mosquitoes in southeast Brazil transmitted diseases like dengue and Zika, which posed a significant public health issue.
The World Health Organization reported that dengue cases reached an all-time high in 2024, with over 5,000 deaths globally, and Zika cases were once again confirmed in various South American countries.
Unfortunately, recent data indicates that disease outbreaks will be similar in 2024.
However, scientists are working on a genetic-modifying solution to this massive problem.
