Mosquito-Borne Diseases

Share this:

Mosquito-borne diseases (MBDs) cause significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Collectively, mosquitoes cause more than 830,000 deaths annually, earning them the title of the world’s deadliest animal.¹

At Mayo Medical Laboratories, we offer a comprehensive menu of individually orderable tests and panels for MBDs. Additionally, our algorithmic approach to MBD testing helps guide our testing to reduce costs and optimize patient care.
