Buenas tardes a tod@s. Alguien me podría aclarar como esta el tema del Zika en Japón. Porque he leído algunas noticias y no me aclaro si está o no presente en japón . Muchas gracias

On 15 February 2016, the Japanese government classified Zika virus infection (includes Zika virus disease and congenital Zika virus infection) as a category IV infectious disease that requires all cases to be notified by clinicians (notification criteria: www.niid.go.jp/ ...de4371.pdf). Since then till week 23 of 2016, a total of 7 cases infected in Central & South America and Oceania were reported (as of 15 June 2016) (Table 2).

Aedes albopictus mosquito capable of transmitting the causative viruses of the three diseases inhabits Japan. They are active during the day in outdoor settings, and feed on persons who enter environments with vegetative cover, such as parks (see p. 126 of this issue).
