But I fail to understand how a Mosquito could live some 40 airborne hours....it is 1700 miles from South America to the islands and high altitude winds blow about 50 miles per hour, at 20,000 feet, as well the temperatures at 20,000 feet are around -25 degrees....more pseudo science I think we can forget airborne spread, and look for fishing boats or sea birds...
I believe that is being borne out by recent Zika cases, all of whom have traveled from elsewhere.
The mosquito, as I understand it, travels no further than 1300 feet in flight .
The most recent 160 cases in Florida are all travel related.
