More Kansans have the Zika virus, according to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.

“There are three additional cases of confirmed Zika virus in Kansas, bringing the total to eight confirmed cases,” said spokeswoman Cassie Sparks.

These cases are all travel related. One is in Northeast Kansas, one in South Central Kansas and one in Southeast Kansas.

“These are all adults with confirmed cases,” Sparks said. “The patient(s) have a history of travel to a country with local Zika transmission.”

KDHE cannot release any more specific details about the patients, including their gender, because of medical privacy concerns.
