Mosquitoes mutate to
carry ‘dangerous’ virus
Instead of the
commonly found Type-3 strain of the dengue virus, this time there has been an
increase in the number of patients affected by the Type-1 and Type-4 of the
virus in Kolkata and its adjoining districts. According to the virologists and
doctors, the increase in Type-1 and Type-4 cases indicate that both Aedes
Aegypti and Aedes Albopicktus — the vectors of the disease — have mutated.
