It is only 10 years before a special vaccine is available for Zika virus

This vaccine will need to be approved by the US Drug Administration before a human clinical trial, for specific drugs such as vaccines, may last 10 to 12 years.

The World Health Organization (WHO) convened an emergency meeting to question the spread of Zika virus - a small brain pathogen in young children - after reporting from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention The United States (CDC) shows that this virus has appeared in more than 24 countries worldwide. WHO identified that Zika virus is extremely worrying.

Besides, many experts also said that although it was discovered in 1947, at that time Zika was not considered a great threat to humans, this view completely changed after many babies. Small head problems are identified that may involve Zika. Although there has never been any scientific evidence to prove this connection.

WHO identified that Zika virus is extremely worrying.

Currently, scientists have embarked on the preparation of vaccines to prevent the Zika pandemic could explode globally, though they also claim that the development time of this vaccine takes at least about 10 year. According to Professor Nikos Vasilakis at the Galveston Center for Biological Prevention and Infectious Diseases, this vaccine is very difficult to prepare in a few months because Zika is a person infected with Zika when there is no pathological manifestation. So it is difficult to identify and collect enough cell samples for research. In addition, this type of vaccine will need to be approved by the US Drug Administration before a human clinical trial, for specific drugs such as vaccines, may last from 10 up to 12 years.

In the current situation, many US health professionals have identified that children in this country are less likely to be infected with Zika virus even though the red alert status has been confirmed by WHO. Explaining this point, entomologist William Reisen said that due to differences in climatic conditions, Zika virus can only exist normally in tropical regions and their only possible way of spreading is through Aedes mosquitoes.

Evidence of mother-to-child transmission is also very limited.

He also stated that in the context of concrete scientific evidence relating to Zika and small head disease has not been confirmed, the best prevention is still to limit the ability of mosquitoes, pregnant mothers to restrictions on moving to areas that are being warned are Zika virus appearances such as Brazil, Colombia, El Salvador, French Guiana, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Martinique, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Suriname, Venezuela, and Puerto Rico.

WHO also said that the evidence of mother-to-child transmission is very limited. Currently there is no evidence of transmission of Zika virus through breast milk, so mothers in Zika virus areas should still breastfeed normally.

Recent studies may provide additional evidence of mother-to-child transmission at birth when Zika is translated in Brazil, which coincides with a significant increase in neonatal early childhood cases.
