niman Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Harris County Public Health (HCPH) has confirmed the first Zika related microcephaly case in Harris County and in the State of Texas. HCPH received a positive Zika test result for an infant who has been diagnosed with microcephaly at birth. The mother, who traveled from Latin America, was tested for Zika, but had received inconclusive test results. Since the infant received a definitive positive lab result for Zika, it is suspected that the mother probably carried the virus while pregnant, and presumably was infected in Latin America. http://publichealth.harriscountytx.gov/Portals/27/Documents/News/Zika_Micro_Press_7-13-16_.pdf?ver=2016-07-13-130439-127 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
