niman Posted February 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 OverviewThis guidance has been developed to provide advice on the prevention of potential sexual transmission of Zika virus. The primary transmission route of Zika virus is via the Aedesmosquito. However, sexual transmission of Zika virus may also be possible, with limited evidence recorded in a few cases. This is of concern due to an association between Zika virus infection and potential complications, including microcephaly and Guillain-Barré syndrome.The current evidence base on Zika virus remains extremely limited. This guidance will be reviewed and the recommendations updated as new evidence emerges.Related linksAll publications, technical guidances on Zika virusMicrocephaly/Zika virus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
