Aedes albopictus mosquito: the main vector of the 2007 Chikungunya outbreak in Gabon.

The primary vector at the origin of the 2007 outbreak in Libreville, Gabon is identified as Aedes albopictus, trapped around the nearby French military camp. The Chikungunya virus was isolated from mosquitoes and found to be identical to the A226V circulating human strain. This is the first field st...
