This study shows that ZIKV infection protects against SPONV in rhesus macaques, but not vice versa, suggesting one-way cross-protection between the viruses.

This study shows ZIKV adapts more rapidly to mice during direct transmission compared to mosquito or alternating host transmission, with a virulence-enhancing mutation emerging.
