The Snohomish Health District said Tuesday the girl had recently traveled to Nicaragua, an area known to have mosquitoes infected with the virus. Officials say the teen isn’t pregnant and that they are working with her health care provider to follow virus guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The state Department of Health said as of July 27, there were 16 confirmed Zika cases statewide. On Monday, the CDC instructed pregnant women to avoid a neighborhood in Miami, Fla., marking what is believed to be the first time in the agency’s 70-year history that it warned people not to travel somewhere in the U.S. http://www.columbian.com/news/2016/aug/02/teen-3rd-in-snohomish-to-test-positive-for-zika/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
