Wait till the Olympics in Brazil start and this virus will spread throughout the world when visitors go back to their country. It's an epidemic waiting to happen.

 

I saw a CNN report.

Heard from news body able to completely flush out the virus after one month. Blood test to scan the virus is 300sgd according to my nursing friend.

First case of locally-transmitted Zika virus infection reported in Singapore: MOH, NEA

 

SINGAPORE: A 47-year-old Malaysian woman living at Block 102 Aljunied Crescent is Singapore's first reported case of locally-transmitted Zika virus infection, the Ministry of Health and National Environment Agency said on Saturday (Aug 27).

 

As she had not travelled to Zika-affected areas recently, she was likely to have been infected in Singapore, MOH and NEA said in a joint news release.

 

According to MOH and NEA, the patient had developed symptoms such as fever, rash and conjunctivitis from Thursday. She visited a general practitioner on Friday and was referred to Tan Tock Seng Hospital’s Communicable Diseases Centre (CDC), where she tested positive for the Zika virus on Saturday.
