<jats:title>Arbovirus risk in Brazil</jats:title> <jats:p> Despite the existence of an effective vaccine for yellow fever, there are still almost 80,000 fatalities from this infection each year. Since 2016, there has been a resurgence of cases in Africa and South America—and this at a time when the vaccine is in short supply. The worry is that yellow fever will spread from the forests to the cities, because its vector, <jats:italic>Aedes</jats:italic> spp. mosquitoes, are globally ubiquitous. Faria <jats:italic>et al.</jats:italic> integrate genomic, epidemiological, and case distribution data from Brazil to estimate patterns of geographic spread, the risks of virus exposure, and the contributions of rural versus urban transmission (see the Perspective by Barrett). Currently, the yellow fever epidemic in Brazil seems to be driven by infections acquired while visiting forested areas and indicates spillover from susceptible wild primates. </jats:p> <jats:p> <jats:italic>Science</jats:italic> , this issue p. <jats:related-article xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" ext-link-type="doi" issue="6405" page="894" related-article-type="in-this-issue" vol="361" xlink:href="10.1126/science.aat7115">894</jats:related-article> ; see also p. <jats:related-article xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" ext-link-type="doi" issue="6405" page="847" related-article-type="in-this-issue" vol="361" xlink:href="10.1126/science.aau8225">847</jats:related-article> </jats:p>

<jats:title>Seismic limits for hard and soft rock</jats:title> <jats:p>Induced earthquakes from oil, gas, and geothermal energy exploration projects can damage infrastructure and concern the public. However, it remains unclear how far away from an injection site an earthquake can still be triggered. Goebel and Brodsky looked at 18 different earthquake-producing injection sites around the world to address this issue. Injecting fluid into softer layers increased the range for seismic hazard, whereas harder basement rock better confined the fluid. These findings should be considered when regulating and managing projects with the potential to induce seismicity.</jats:p> <jats:p> <jats:italic>Science</jats:italic> , this issue p. <jats:related-article xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" ext-link-type="doi" issue="6405" page="899" related-article-type="in-this-issue" vol="361" xlink:href="10.1126/science.aat5449">899</jats:related-article> </jats:p>
