One o the leading concerns around the world right now, especially in the West, is the ongoing problem of the Zika Virus. This particular disease is spreading gradually with each day there is a report of a new infection. While some authorities have claimed that there is nothing to be fearful about, one cannot ignore the number of cases that are rising and the effects of being infected with it. As always is the case with viruses, the lack of information can be the most dangerous issue. So here is a list of things that you should know about Zika.
5. No treatment for Zika?
As it stands, there isn’t exactly any real treatment for Zika. Why? Well, for starters, the government of the United States did not take Zika seriously at first. Initially, they thought that it was one of those minor diseases that would soon pass along with the weather. However, Zika has stayed back and is infecting people almost every other day. There haven’t been any approved drugs or vaccines for Zika yet but the word around the medical industry is that they are trying furiously to make one. Many infected people will not even know that they are infected. However, if you do feel rashes coming up or eye pains happening then stay hydrated and take Tylenol.
