Abstract
The recent rapid spread of Aedes albopictus to many areas previously free of such infestations, including Albania and Italy, has heightened concern among public health and vector control officials. Ae. albopictus is a proven or potential vector of several arboviruses, including some that are, or have been, actively transmitted in southern Europe. These virus/vector relationships are reviewed with a view toward assessing the risk posed by the current presence of Ae. albopictus in the region.Entities:
