Abstract
We conducted mosquito-based Zika virus surveillance in São Paulo State, Brazil from 2015 to 2018. We found 81 pools positive for Aedes aegypti and one pool positive for Aedes albopictus. Infection rates were highest in the summer. Areas with human Zika cases also had clusters of Zika-positive mosquitoes. • We conducted mosquito-based Zika virus surveillance in São Paulo State, Brazil. • We found Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus females and males infected with Zika virus. • Areas with human Zika cases also had clusters of Zika-positive mosquitoes.
