    Abstract: Disclose is a method of treating alphavirus infections, particularly in humans, in which pentosan polysulfate is administered to an infected subject. Whilst not effecting the viral load in a subject, the pentosan polysulfate acts to reduce inflammation in tissues, such as the muscles, and in the joints of a subject. In addition, cartilage damage in the joints may be reduced. The reduction in inflammation and/or cartilage damage acts to reduce the severe pain experienced by subjects suffering from alphavirus infections, such as Ross River virus, chikungunya virus and Barmah Forest virus.

    Abstract: This invention relates to a vaccine comprising live attenuated Zika virus comprising a partly codon deoptimized viral genome, a Zika virus comprising a partly codon deoptimized viral genome, as well as their use in methods of treatment and prevention of viral infection. is deoptimized along the nonstructural ZIKV coding region. In some embodiments, the non-structural region of the viral genome is codon deoptimized, and preferably one or more of the genes NS1, NS2A, NS2B, NS3, NS4A, NS4B and NS5 are codon deoptimized.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a vaccine comprising live attenuated recombinant alphavirus comprising mutated capsid protein. The invention also relates to a method of preventing a subject from contracting an alphaviral infection that would otherwise produce clinical signs of disease. In an embodiment the mutated capsid protein is Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) capsid protein having a mutated nucleolar localisation signal/sequence (NoLS), preferably the mutant NLS 101/95.
