    a study by Kansas State University confirmed that the new coronavirus cannot be transmitted to humans by mosquitoes. The new study provides the first solid experimental data to support the World Health Organization's assertion that mosquitoes cannot transmit new coronavirus, researchers said in a paper published in the journal Scientific Reports.
    questions about whether the new coronavirus can be transmitted by mosquitoes, the WHO made it clear that it could not, saying that "there is no information or evidence that the new coronavirus can be transmitted by mosquitoes". This assertion is based on various observations from other coronavirus studies and is not supported by conclusive experimental data.
    to find relevant scientific evidence, a team at Kansas State University's Biosecurity Institute conducted targeted experimental studies. They tested the ability of the new coronavirus to infect and replicate in three common and widely distributed mosquitoes by inoculation in the virus's chest cavity. The three types of mosquitoes are the Aedes aegypti mosquito, the Aedes aegypti mosquito and the achypti mosquito, which represent the two most important vector-borne genus infected with humans. According to the researchers, in-thoracic inoculation is the most
    way to attack a mosquito with the virus, and if the new coronavirus is not replicated in the mosquito after inoculation in the chest cavity, the mosquito can rule out the possibility of transmitting the virus even if the mosquito sucks the blood of a patient who contains the virus.
    researchers detected the new coronavirus in samples collected within two hours of vaccination, confirming that the virus could be effectively transmitted to mosquitoes, but the virus was not detected in all 277 samples collected at all points in time 24 hours after vaccination. The researchers concluded that the new coronavirus could not be replicated in mosquitoes, which do not become vectors of the virus.
    researchers say the new study answers public questions about whether the new coronavirus can be transmitted by mosquitoes, suggesting that even under
    conditions the virus cannot replicate in mosquitoes, and that mosquitoes that suck blood containing the virus cannot transmit the virus to humans.
