Abstrakt: Currently, an increasing impact of some arboviruses has been observed in Europe, mainly Dengue (DENV), Chikungunya (CHIKV), Zika (ZIKV), West Nile (WNV), and Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHFV) analyzed through a One Health perspective that considers their expansion across the continent. Arboviruses are primarily transmitted by vectors such as mosquitoes and ticks, with human activities and climate change playing crucial roles in their spread. The review highlights the ecological and epidemiological aspects of arboviruses, emphasizing the roles of diverse hosts and reservoirs, including humans, animals, and vectors, in their life cycles. The influence of climate change on the ecology of the vector, which potentially favors the arbovirus transmission, is also reviewed. Focusing on diagnosis, prevention and in the absence of specific treatments, the importance of understanding vector-host interactions and environmental impacts to develop effective control and prevention strategies is emphasized. Ongoing research on vaccines and therapies is crucial to mitigate the public health impact of these diseases.
