Arbo-France is a French network for the study of arboviruses whose objective is to facilitate preparedness and response to human and animal arbovirus epidemics in mainland France and in the overseas territories.
Arbo-France was set up at the request of the REACTing/Aviesan to cope with the increasing number and severity of arbovirus epidemics, the extension of these viruses to new geographical areas and the risk of emergence of other arboviruses.
