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.
