Here is a hypothetical situation: An area of the country has received a record amount of rainfall this year coupled with a mild

winter and a warm spring and summer. As a result the mosquito population is exceptionally high. Mosquitoes are not pathogens to humans. However, mosquitoes can greatly affect the rate of infection for several types of human pathogens. Pick and describe two pathogens that you should expect to see at higher frequency because of this booming mosquito population.

Answer:

Zika virus and West Nile virus are the two pathogens which causes more diseases due to increase the population of mosquito.

Explanation:

Zika virus belongs to the family of Flaviviridae. Aedes mosquitoes which are active at day time are the carrier of this virus. West Nile virus is also spread through the bite of mosquito. The infected mosquito is the main cause of spreading of this disease. This virus is spreading too fast in the United States of America in the summer season where the population of mosquitoes increases.
