Zika Virus Control
Taxonomy Code: JP-1500.1700-980
Programs that attempt to control the occurrence and spread of the Zika virus which is transmitted through the bite of an infected Aedes mosquito, primarily by promoting steps that people can take to avoid mosquito bites, e.g., wearing long sleeved clothing and long pants when walking outside in the morning and evening in places where mosquitoes are prevalent, and using EPA-registered insect repellents. Because the virus may also be spread by sexual contact, it is recommended that people who have contracted the virus use condoms or avoid having sex. It is not known how long the virus remains present in the semen of men who have had Zika. There is no vaccine to prevent Zika virus disease. Also included are programs that distribute registered insect repellents.
