Reseña: Viral infections transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes are still a considerable health concern in tropical countries. Dengue is an endemo-epidemic disease in Colombia, which has reported the second highest number of cases in South America (Villar et al., 2015). The chikungunya virus (CHIKV) has been present in Africa and Asia for many years, and it was detected in America in 2013; since then, more than 2 million cases have been reported in the continent (Yactayo et al., 2016; PAHO, 2020).
