Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Vector control is the best defense against arboviruses as they are transmitted through infected vectors such as mosquitoes and ticks. This can be achieved through measures such as use of insecticide-treated bed nets, environment cleanup, and insecticide spraying. While vaccinations can be effective against some arboviruses, they may not provide universal protection and prompt treatment with acyclovir may only be effective against certain viruses. Prophylactic rifampin may not be effective against arboviruses.
