What's the Zika Virus?

Who hasn't heard about the Zika Virus? It's currently one of the most trending topics, and for a not-so-good reason.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has just declared it the Zika Virus outbreak a "public health emergency" that is "spreading explosively" across the Americas. 

 


 

Currently, there are no treatments and no vaccines for the Zika Virus, so the best measure we have against the Zika Virus is PREVENTION. 

Please stay safe and be vigilant.
