age and sex. Microcephaly can be an isolated condition or can be associated with a combination of other birth defects. Depending on how severe the microcephaly is, a number of other conditions may be associated as well.
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) reports the following health issues linked to microcephaly:
Seizures
Development delay; for example speech or problems with sitting, standing, or walking
Decreased ability to learn and function in daily life
Problems with movement and balance
Feeding problems such as difficulty swallowing
Hearing loss
Vision problems
These problems can range from mild to severe according to Dr. Allen of Vibrant Essence. Microcephaly is a rare condition. In the United States it is estimated to occur in the range of 2-12 babies per 10,000 live births. In areas where the epidemic is spreading rapidly, the link between Zika infection and microcephaly is growing stronger. Brazil reports 4,000 cases of microcephaly between October 2015 and February 2016.
The Zika outbreak is now an international health emergency reports Vibrant Essence, involving 25 countries and territories excluding the United States. Most of them are located in Latin America and the Caribbean. WHO estimates the outbreak could infect up to 4 million people. These are the Locations Where the Zika Virus is Active .
Transmission is likely to increase in the warmer months. Pregnant women and women wishing to become pregnant can take the following steps:
1. Postpone travel to affected areas if possible.
2. Reduce mosquito populations outdoors by removing sources of standing water.
3. Wear light colored clothing; preferably pants and long sleeves.
4. Protect exposed areas with mosquito repellents.
