ZIKA VIRUS

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has warned pregnant women to

postpone vacation plans to Mexico, Puerto Rico and parts of the Caribbean, Central and

South America where Zika is present, because the virus has recently been linked to birth

defects in newborn babies in Brazil. The Zika virus is spread by Aedes species of mosquitoes. These mosquitoes can pick up the

virus by biting an infected person, and then transmit it to someone else they bite later. The

virus doesn’t typically spread from person to person directly, though sexual transmission is

possible.

The type of mosquito that spreads Zika most often is limited to tropical and subtropical

areas. In the U.S., they’re most common in Florida, the Gulf Coast and in Hawaii, but they

also go as far north as Georgia and South Carolina. Another species that can carry them

can range as far as New York in the summer. Experts think the virus will cause small,

localized outbreaks in the U.S.

There is no vaccine to prevent Zika, so the best way to protect yourself is to avoid mos-

quito bites if you are in an area where Zika is active. The Centers for Disease Control and

Prevention recommends that pregnant women avoid travel to countries where outbreaks

are occurring.

According to the CDC, only about 1 in 5 people infected with the virus actually become

sick with symptoms such as fever, rash, joint or muscle pain, headache and red eyes. The

symptoms are usually mild and last just a week or less.

The World Health Organization recommends the following. If you live in or travel to an area where Zika is common:

• Keep skin covered with with long-sleeved shirts, pants and hats.

• Use recommended insect repellants.

• Sleep under mosquito nets in topical areas.

To keep mosquitoes away from your home:

• Avoid allowing water to stand in outdoor containers.

• Put garbage in bags and closed containers. Use screens and mosquito nets in your windows and doors.

Now taking registration for 3 year old preschool program. Classes run Tuesday &

Thursday afternoons from 12:30-3pm. We need 6 children to

make a class. Don’t hesitate to call to register decision to hold

class will be made August 17th.
