"Arbovirus" is a term for a virus transmitted to mammals by hematophagous arthropods; arboviruses; replicate in both mammals and arthropods. Since the life cycle of arboviruses is highly dependent on arthropods, control of the arthropods (vectors) is generally considered important for the control of arbovirus infection. Various pathogens that cause diseases in the medical and veterinary fields are grouped into arboviruses with a history of their discoveries since the early 20th century. Furthermore, because of recent advances in sequencing technology, new arboviruses have been discovered one after another. Here we would like to overview the known arboviruses and their infections.
“虫媒病毒”是指通过吸血节肢动物传播给哺乳动物的病毒；虫媒病毒在哺乳动物和节肢动物体内均可复制。由于虫媒病毒的生命周期高度依赖节肢动物，因此通常认为控制节肢动物（媒介）对于控制虫媒病毒感染至关重要。自20世纪初以来，医学和兽医学领域中导致疾病的各种病原体根据其发现历史被归类为虫媒病毒。此外，由于测序技术的最新进展，新的虫媒病毒不断被发现。在此，我们将概述已知的虫媒病毒及其感染情况。
