All animals were subcutaneously inoculated with 2.6 × 10⁶ PFU in 100 µL of virus or 100 µL of PBS (Mock) and euthanized at 5 dpi. Mus musculus (A129 strain) were used as positive control. ZIKV PRVABC59 = ZIKV strain PRVABC59 (ZIKV-PR; GenBank: KU501215), ZIKV 41525 = ZIKV strain DAK 41525 (GenBank: KU955591.1).
