Ministry Launches Zika Awareness Campaign
by Chhorn Phearun | September 15, 2016
Health officials are touring the provinces in a fleet of vehicles plastered with warnings and mounted with loudspeakers to raise awareness about the Zika virus and share strategies to prevent its outbreak, the Health Ministry said on Wednesday.
Zika, a mosquito-borne and sexually transmitted disease that has caused birth defects across Latin America, has been detected in growing numbers of people in Southeast Asia over the past month. More than 500 cases have been recorded across Singapore and Thailand this year, according to local media reports, as well as at least 40 cases in Malaysia and three in Vietnam.

Re: Zika Virus is in Thailand.
The serious worry is if you want to have kids, or if you or your lady are pregnant. However, it is not known if the "Asian or old" zika virus produces the same birth defects as the Latin American variant.Luigi wrote:Of all the STD's in the world Zika I would not give worry.Anchor Moy wrote:But what a bummer to give up sex... only to find that you've been bitten by a bloody mosquito.Username Taken wrote:Yes, but you forgot about the sexually transmitted diseases.Luigi wrote:Source reduction.

Caution advised, watch out for the mozzies and practice birth control just in case.
http://www.reuters.com/article/us-healt ... SKCN11E0O9Singapore said on Thursday it did not know if the Zika virus detected in the country could cause the same birth defects and other disorders linked to an outbreak in Latin America.
A DNA analysis of the mosquito-borne virus, which has infected almost 300 people in Singapore, including two pregnant women, revealed slight differences between the strains but it was not clear what that meant in terms of the severity of the disease, the health ministry said...
"Researchers do not yet know if the 'old' lineage of Zika also causes complications such as microcephaly and neurological disorders," the spokeswoman said.

Re: Zika Virus is in Thailand.
UPDATE 2-Thailand confirms two cases of Zika-linked microcephaly, first in region
By Aukkarapon Niyomyat
Thailand confirmed on Friday that the Zika virus had caused two cases of microcephaly, a condition that results in babies being born with small heads, the first time it has been linked to Zika in Southeast Asia.
The confirmation came a day after U.S. health officials recommended that pregnant women postpone nonessential travel to 11 Southeast Asian countries, including Thailand, because of the risk of mosquito-borne Zika.
