你一定想說，光前導知識就這麼長，這怎麼得了(翻桌)。
但其實這裡有疾管局作的可愛版簡短影片(點我點我)，快速看完後也許會氣消XD
茲卡熱大家平常應該不是很熟，但登革熱大家應該很熟，兩者都經由蚊子叮咬而傳染，症狀也相當類似，這兩隻病毒都被歸類為"黃病毒"，可以說是好兄弟。
登革熱是由登革熱病毒引起；茲卡熱.....當然就是由茲卡病毒引起。這個疾病以往很少造成大規模感染，造成的症狀跟登革熱類似。但一直到2015年，巴西傳出有懷孕婦女感染茲卡病毒後產下小腦嬰兒，才又受到全球矚目。雖然也有不少科學家懷疑是基因改造蚊子或水質的問題，而跟茲卡病毒無關，但目前疫情似乎有擴大的情形。
Zika virus disease (Zika) is a disease caused by Zika virus that is spread to people primarily through the bite of an infected Aedes species mosquito. The most common symptoms of Zika are fever, rash, joint pain, and conjunctivitis (red eyes). The illness is usually mild with symptoms lasting for several days to a week after being bitten by an infected mosquito. People usually don’t get sick enough to go to the hospital, and they very rarely die of Zika. For this reason, many people might not realize they have been infected. Once a person has been infected, he or she is likely to be protected from future infections.
Zika virus was first discovered in 1947 and is named after the Zika forest in Uganda. In 1952, the first human cases of Zika were detected and since then, outbreaks of Zika have been reported in tropical Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific Islands. Zika outbreaks have probably occurred in many locations. Before 2007, at least 14 cases of Zika had been documented, although other cases were likely to have occurred and were not reported. Because the symptoms of Zika are similar to those of many other diseases, many cases may not have been recognized.
In May 2015, the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) issued an alert regarding the first confirmed Zika virus infection in Brazil and on Feb 1, 2016, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared Zika virus a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC). Local transmission has been reported in many other countries and territories. Zika virus likely will continue to spread to new areas.
Specific areas with ongoing Zika virus transmission is ongoing are often difficult to determine and are likely to change over time. If traveling, please visit the CDC Travelers’ Health site for the most updated travel information.
Zika virus：茲卡病毒，主要由蚊蟲傳染，所以也是一種蟲媒病毒，黃病毒的一種。
conjunctivitis：結膜炎。俗稱紅眼症，結膜血管因為發炎或感染，而較平時明顯。
