One of the new CDC guidelines

Men who have traveled to Zika-affected areas should consider abstaining from sex with their pregnant partner for the duration of the pregnancy.

Bad news for everyone

In the news today

QuoteA person in Dallas County, Texas, has contracted the Zika virus through sexual contact with an infected person who had visited a country where an outbreak has been identified.

There have been many stories about the Zika Virus in the news recently.  Is the Youngstown area ready if this virus infects the native mosquito population?  I hope that the Youngstown City Council Health Committee is already discussing this potential health issue.
