What is the Zika virus?
The Zika virus was first detected in 1947 in Uganda with the first human case reported in 1952 and has since appeared in outbreaks across Asia, Africa and more recently in South America. In May 2015, the outbreak of the virus in Brazil began to spread and is currently working its way through South America and Central America. The World Health Organization (WHO) has announced that the virus is likely to continue to spread to new locations, including the United States.

Why is the Zika virus dangerous?
Zika fever is usually mild in adults and in most cases it does not pose a direct threat to life. However, the problem comes when a pregnant woman becomes infected with the virus. There is great concern that if a woman contracted the virus during pregnancy, it could pass to her baby. The virus is associated with some birth defects such as microcephaly, which leads to the birth of babies of women with underdeveloped small heads and brains. Other birth defects associated with Zika virus in pregnant women include:
Eye defects
hearing loss
Poor growth
For women who are not currently pregnant, the CDC does not believe that a future pregnancy will be at risk.
How is the Zika virus transmitted?
Zika virus is transmitted in three main paths:
An infected man can pass the Zika virus to his partners during unprotected sex.
The virus can be passed from a pregnant woman to her baby.
The most common way: The virus is transmitted from person to person through mosquito bites.
In the most common method of transmission, a mosquito bites a person infected with Zika, and then carries the virus with them when it bites another person. Then the second person will be exposed to the virus and may become infected. The CDC is currently investigating reported cases of Zika virus transmission through blood transfusions; However, there was no concrete evidence to support this. |
