Rapid Evolution of Enhanced Zika Virus Virulence during Direct Vertebrate Transmission Chains

Zika virus (ZIKV) has the unusual capacity to circumvent natural alternating mosquito-human transmission and be directly transmitted human to human via sexual and vertical routes. The impact of direct transmission on ZIKV evolution and adaptation to vertebrate hosts is unknown. Here, we show that mo...
