Mosquitoes are collected from traps at Camp Lemonnier,
Summary
Mosquitoes are collected from traps at Camp Lemonnier, Djibouti, June 7, 2013. Members of Camp Lemonnier's expeditionary medical facility preventive-medicine department put these samples into vials and ship them to the U.S. Army Public Health Command laboratory in Stuttgart, Germany, where researchers test the samples for viruses. The collection and testing of mosquitoes are part of the camp's mosquito-control program, which monitors the mosquito population as a preventive measure to limit the risk of mosquito-borne diseases to Camp Lemonnier and Combined Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa personnel.
