Abstract
Zika virus has been trending in national and global news outlets before and throughout the summer of 2016. This viral outbreak is driven by mosquitos and sexual transmission, and is quickly spreading from South America to North America. The virus is linked to children born with microcephaly, which manifests as a deformity of the head as well as brain development issues. As of early August, Zika was found in the United States in Florida and the CDC has issued a travel warning to pregnant women and their partners traveling to Miami. To provide some insight on the Zika epidemic and other global health issues, I interviewed Dr. Lisa M: Noguchi who is Senior Maternal Health Advisor for Jhpiego, an implementing partner to the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). She is the Zika Response Technical Lead.
