Discussion

Molecular detection identified dengue and chikungunya viruses in Aedes mosquitoes, indicating ongoing public health risks.

Dengue virus was detected in three pools of Aedes mosquitoes, providing critical information for public health.
A total of 3,510 Aedes mosquitoes were collected across sites, with 88% identified as Ae. aegypti.
Molecular detection methods revealed DENV-3 presence in pools from endemic areas, emphasizing urgent monitoring needs.
Findings support the call for further research on circulating arboviruses in Ethiopia to mitigate public health threats.

Abera et al. (2025) studied this question.
