Abstract: Dengue virus (DENV) is an arbovirus primarily transmitted through mosquito bite; however, DENV transfusion‐transmitted infections (TTIs) have been reported and asymptomatic DENV RNA–positive blood donors have been identified in endemic countries. DENV is considered a… read more here.

Abstract: Risk of transfusion‐transmitted (TT) malaria is mainly associated with whole blood (WB) or red blood cell (RBC) transfusion. Risk mitigation relies mostly on donor deferral while a limited number of countries perform blood testing, both… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/trf.16867
Abstract: Plasmodium falciparum is the parasite responsible for most malaria cases globally. The risk of transfusion‐transmitted malaria (TTM) is mitigated by donor deferrals and blood screening strategies, which adversely impact blood availability. Previous studies showed robust… read more here.
