Summary

Zika virus (ZiV), a mosquito-borne illness, has become a global health emergency. This review examines ZiV

Area of Science:

  • Virology
  • Epidemiology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Zika virus (ZiV), a mosquito-borne Flavivirus, emerged in Brazil in 2014, causing a global health emergency.
  • Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are the primary vector for ZiV, facilitating rapid geographical spread.
  • Populations lacking herd immunity and abundant Aedes mosquitoes are particularly vulnerable to ZiV outbreaks.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of the current global scenario of Zika virus.
  • To analyze the epidemiology, biology, and diagnostic challenges associated with Zika virus.
  • To explore potential remedial measures for Zika virus, with a specific focus on the Indian context.

Main Methods:

  • This study is a review of existing literature on Zika virus.

  • Information was gathered on global spread, transmission dynamics, and clinical manifestations.
  • Diagnostic techniques and control strategies were assessed based on current research.

    • Main Results:

    • Zika virus has rapidly disseminated globally, posing a significant threat.
    • Diagnostic challenges remain a concern in controlling the spread of ZiV.
    • Effective control measures are crucial, especially in regions with high vector density.

    Conclusions:

    • A thorough understanding of Zika virus epidemiology and biology is essential for effective public health interventions.
    • Addressing diagnostic challenges and implementing robust vector control strategies are critical for managing ZiV.
    • The Indian perspective is vital for developing targeted strategies against Zika virus given its vulnerability.
