One should know this disease how dangerous it is ....
In 1947 scientists identify a new virus in a rhesus monkey in the Zika forest
of Uganda - named as the Zika virus.The virus is then recovered from the mosquito
Aedes africanus,found in the Zika forest Uganda in 1948. The first case was registered
in Uganda and United Republic of Tanzania.A research scientist is infected with this virus when
he was working on those virus that is dangerous to human in 1964.
Later in 1960 to 1980 many cases are confirmed through testing their blood.Though there were no cases regarding death was registered but the eduction on this topic was accepted widely. Later this disease was spreaded like clouds on different regions in 20th century.Zika virus is detected in mosquitoes found in equatorial Asia including India, Indonesia,Malaysia and Pakistan. US scientist conducting field work in Senegal falls ill with Zika infection. On his return home to Colorado he infects his wife in what is the first documented case of sexual transmission of a disease usually transmitted by insects.Researchers identify 2 distinct lineages of the virus , Africa and Asian.Brazil notifies WHO of an illness characterized by skin rash in northeastern states. From February 2015 to 29 April 2015, nearly 7000 mild cases are reported, with no reported deaths. Of 425 blood samples taken for differential diagnosis, 13% are positive for dengue. Tests for chikungunya, measles, rubella, parvovirus B19, and enterovirus are negative. Zika was not suspected at this stage, and no tests for Zika were carried out.Brazil reports an unusual increase in the number of cases of microcephaly among newborns.Zika virus is highlighted in WHO's Weekly Epidemiological Record:
"Recent outbreaks of ZIKV infection in different regions of the world underscore the potential for the virus to spread further in the Americas and beyond, wherever the vector is present."
WHO expert meetings have identified gaps in knowledge about Zika virus, potentially related complications, effective interventions, and areas of needed research and technologies. Dr Chan highlights findings and next steps in the fight against Zika.
Treatment
Zika virus disease is usually relatively mild and requires no specific treatment. People sick with Zika virus should get plenty of rest, drink enough fluids, and treat pain and fever with common medicines. If symptoms worsen, they should seek medical care and advice. There is currently no vaccine available.
