"Zika Virus_What We Know And What We Don't_2016" :
What is zika virus:
Zika virus is a member of the Flaviviridae family and is transmitted to humans by mosquitoes. It is
related to other pathogenic vector borne flaviviruses including dengue.
How to spread:
Zika is spread mostly by the bite of an infected Aedes species mosquito _Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus.
These mosquitoes are aggressive daytime biters. They can also bite at night.
The virus has been found in rare cases to spread from mother to child around childbirth and possibly
during pregnancy.
Recent evidence suggests it also can be spread through sexual contact.
Steps of spread zika:
Female needs blood for the production of eggs.
Mosquito feeds on virus-infected blood --> Infected blood travels to the midgut --> Virus enters the
circulator system --> And travels to the salivary glands --> Mosquito bites again, injecting virus-
infected saliva into victim before feeding.
Symptoms of Zika virus include:
Fever.
Rash.
Joint pain.
Conjunctivitis_red eyes
Muscle pain.
Headache.
Pain behind the eyes.
Vomiting.
Prevention:
Talk with your doctor or healthcare provider.
Do not travel to areas with Zika.
Prevent Zika by avoiding mosquito bites.
Zika can be passed through sex from a person who has Zika to his or her sex partners. Condoms can reduce
the chance of getting Zika from sex. Condoms include male and female condoms.
While staying in an affected area, make sure windows and window screens are fully closed when you sleep
or protect yourself with mosquito netting.
Take anti-mosquito-bite precautions around the clock. Mosquitoes that transmit Zika are hard to avoid
because they bite during the day, opposed to only in the evening.
Wear pants and long-sleeved shirts to cover exposed skin.
Avoid mosquito-breeding sites like bodies of standing water.
Any vaccine to prevent Zika?
Not currently, though the medical community is actively pursuing methods to combat or eradicate the
disease. The National Institutes of Health recently announced that it will begin its first human clinical
trial of the NIAID Zika virus investigational DNA vaccine, however health experts warn that the development of an effective vaccine may take years.
