11 Zika Fever Clinical PresentaLon IncubaLon period: 2-14 days 1 in 5 people infected will become symptomalc PresentaLon similar (but milder) to other illnesses like dengue and chikungunya Most common signs and symptoms Fever (ojen low-grade) Maculopapular rash Arthralgia ConjuncLviLs Myalgia Headache Retro-orbital pain VomiLng 11

12 Zika Fever (conlnued) SymptomaLc treatment Typically resolves within a week Avoid aspirin and similar drugs (NSAIDs) Possible link to Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) Link to poor pregnancy outcomes No vaccine but research underway 12

13 Laboratory TesLng 13 No commercial teslng available (FDA approves AEU). Sample submiyed to DOH for teslng must be approved by CHD Polymerase Chain ReacLon Serum and urine sample collected within 21 days of illness onset Serology (detects anlbodies against Zika virus) Serum sample collected 4 days of illness onset Convalescent specimen may be needed AddiLonal tests may be requested at CDC.

14 CDC Travel Alert/HAN Travel Alert Level 2-PracLce Enhanced PrecauLons Pregnant women in any trimester should postpone travel Women trying to become pregnant should consult healthcare provider before travel Avoid mosquito bites hyp:// zika-virus-travel.html hyp://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/nolces hyp://emergency.cdc.gov/han/han00385.asp 14

Mother of an infant or fetus with microcephaly or intracranial calcificalons or poor fetal outcome diagnosed ajer the first trimester and have history of travel to an area with Zika virus aclvity during pregnancy. (TesLng of both the mother and infant is recommended.) 17
