This species of mosquito spreads yellow fever, dengue, zika, chikungunya, and several other diseases. Malaria-carrying mosquitos are in another genus. And yeah, people absolutely do die from those, and even if they don't, they are horrible diseases that can produce long-term health effects. The case fatality rate for yellow fever is 15-50% (I'm guessing strongly dependent on whether the victim has access to modern hospitalization). https://www.who.int/csr/resources/publications/yellowfev/CSR... |
