Tomato Issues

I am very troubled by the state of my tomatoes. The top half is curled, flowers are few and hardly any are producing fruit. One plant has some yellowing on the older leaves. It started a few weeks ago when the temperatures shot up and there was much less rain, but it's not getting better now that things have stabilized a bit. As I investigated, it seems that there are a lot of aphids. So, is this aphid damage, or have they transmitted a disease (possibly cucumber mosaic virus or tobacco mosaic virus)?






My zucchini are struggling with the cucumber bugs also. I sprayed pyrethrin on everything, but I just don't know if it's too late.
