Reemergence of yellow fever virus in forest and periurban settings in Brazil
These findings demonstrate ongoing yellow fever virus activity in Brazil, with forest regions serving as reservoirs for reemergence and periurban areas supporting continued spread. Strengthened genomic and epizootic surveillance is required to detect viral expansion early and inform targeted prevention strategies across Brazil and the Americas.
