CST March 04, 20161CONNECT TWEET LINKEDIN GOOGLE+ PINTERESTA Missouri man, who recently traveled to Haiti, has been positively diagnosed with the Zika virus. This is the first confirmed case of the Zika virus infection in a resident of Missouri. The majority of people who contract the virus don't exhibit symptoms, but those that do can expect a fever, rash, joint soreness and/or reddened eyes. According to the CDC, the virus is most commonly spread through mosquito bites, but has also been transmitted through unprotected sexual contact, blood transfusions and infected pregnant moms can spread the virus to their unborn babies. No vaccines currently exist to prevent the virus so people are encouraged to avoid mosquito bites in affected areas. No cases of infection from mosquito bites have been reported in Missouri. http://www.ksdk.com/news/local/mo-man-diagnosed-with-zika-virus/68059190 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
