Maybe a lot of you know about the Zika Virus, but some of you don’t.Since May 2015, Zika virus  – an emerging viral disease transmitted by Aedes mosquito bites – has been spreading in the Americas and the Caribbean, following the first cases reported in Brazil. They also appeared in Ukraine this month. Now everybody must stay alert and wash his hands.

The most common symptoms of Zika virus disease are fever, rash, joint pain, or conjunctivitis (red eyes). Symptoms typically begin 2 to 7 days after being bitten by an infected mosquito.

There is no vaccine to prevent Zika. The best way to prevent diseases spread by mosquitoes is to avoid being bitten. Protect yourself and your family from mosquito bites. Here’s how:

• Wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants.
• Stay in places with air conditioning or that use window and door screens to keep mosquitoes outside
• Treat clothing and gear with permethrin or purchase permethrin-treated items.
  • Treated clothing remains protective after multiple washings. See product information to learn how long the protection will last.
  • If treating items yourself, follow the product instructions carefully.
  • Do NOT use permethrin products directly on skin. They are intended to treat clothing.
• Sleep under a mosquito bed net if you are overseas or outside and are not able to protect yourself from mosquito bites.
