    Document: Flavivirus infections are a major public health problem [33] . Annually, millions of people are infected and flaviviruses cause significant health, economic, and social burdens worldwide [34] . The virus is endemic in many countries but can cause devastating outbreaks. In 2015, there was a widespread ZIKV outbreak in the Americas associated with severe neurological disorders (i.e., microcephaly and Guillain-Barré syndrome). In Africa in 2016, YFV re-emergence caused 600 deaths [10] . No antiviral drugs are available to treat flavivirus infections. Hence, there is an urgent need for proper antiviral therapies in order to control forthcoming outbreaks.
