CLIMATE CHANGE AND XXXX VIRUS Sample Clauses

CLIMATE CHANGE AND XXXX VIRUS. In 2016, The World Health Organization declared ZIKV infection to be an international public health emergency. However, there has not been significant evidence suggesting that Xxxx is the cause of microcephaly, which can lead to severe neurological sequelae in babies. "ZIKV is transmitted to humans primarily through the bite of infected mosquitoes, Aedes aegypti, and Aedes albopictus. These mosquitoes are the principal vectors of dengue and ZIKV disease." The signs and symptoms of ZIKV are usually mild and develop in only one in five persons. Severity requiring hospitalization is uncommon and case fatality is relatively low. Currently, there is no vaccine and antiviral treatment available for ZIKV infection. The only way to prevent ZIKV infection is to prevent maternal infection. ZIKV has been activated as a category V Notifiable Infectious Disease similar to Ebola virus and MERS. To control ZIKV, CDC has issued Travel health notice targeting pregnant women, for the following countries, Cape Verde, Mexico, Africa (Angola, and Guinea-Bissau), Asia (Maldives, and Singapore), The Caribbean, Central America, The Pacific Islands, and South America along with other risk areas. Affected countries have developed ZIKV surveillance systems among pregnant women. America and Puerto Rico have implemented ZIKV registries.
