A Virginia resident who traveled outside the United States has tested positive for the mosquito-transmitted Zika virus, the Associated Press reported on Tuesday, citing health officials.
周二,美联社援引卫生官员报道,一名弗吉尼亚居民出国旅游后检测到蚊传播寨卡病毒呈阳性。
Virginia Health Commissioner Dr. Marissa Levine said the resident traveled to a country where the Zika virus transmission is ongoing.
弗吉尼亚州卫生专员玛丽莎·莱文博士称,居民前往过寨卡病毒正流行的国家。
Levine said this person poses no risk to other residents, because it is not mosquito season in Virginia.
莱文表示,此人不会对其他居民造成任何风险,因为弗吉尼亚不是蚊子的季节。
The mosquito-borne virus has been linked to brain damage in thousands of babies in Brazil. There is no vaccine or treatment for Zika.
蚊传播病毒与巴西数千名婴儿脑部损伤有关。目前没有应对寨卡病毒的疫苗或方法。
