Abstract:Zika virus disease is caused by Zika virus transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. It is a mild disease and most people with the virus do not have symptoms. Potential complications of Zika virus disease might be babies born with microcephaly and Guillain-Barré syndrome. Zika virus diagnosis can be confirmed by laboratory testing for the presence of Zika virus RNA in the blood or other body fluids, such as urine or saliva. There is no specific treatment or vaccine currently available. The best form of prevention is protection against mosquito bites. The virus was first identified in humans in Uganda in 1952. Outbreaks of Zika virus disease have been recorded in Africa, the Americas, Asia and the Pacific.
