I wonder if the CDC is actually going to do something about it. It has the potential to be more destructive than the 2014-15 Ebola outbreak, and they're barely doing a thing about it. They're working on methods to screen non-symptomatic people to see if they have it, but they're not doing much in the way of vaccines.

Global warming is increasing the size of the tropical zone, so you won't be safe up there permanently. It should be a while before it gets warm enough for those mosquitoes, though.

One of the main reasons why I've always been somewhat hesitant to pursue a career in Epidemiology. Even if you've already perfected a year, it'll be months (if not years) until the FDA even considers passing it.

probably not worse than ebola as it can only be spread by a certain species of mosquito, which, in the US, is only present in the southeastern bit (the part that the us would be better off without)

Not worse than Ebola in MR terms, but contagiousness. The World Health Organization predicts at least 4 million infections between now and this time next year, just in the Americas alone.
And that species of mosquito isn't even really in the United States at all yet. There have been no cases of INFECTION in the US, but there have been returning travelers from affected areas who were sick. That could still result in it spreading, as it can spread inter-personally too.

From what I have found online, it doesn't seem to be that deadly, but there are considerable risks for expecting women.

What is the major deal about it, though,o the their than the issues for expecting women? IK it's a stupid question, but I'm not understanding.

So it's only an issue with reproducing, so say a woman had there tubes tied.

No issues, correct?

"What is the major deal about it, though,o the their than the issues for expecting women? IK it's a stupid question, but I'm not understanding."

The main issue with it, is it causes severe birth defects. It causes babies' heads to stop developing, and they're born with small brains and heads.
It can still kill fully grown adults, but it's not any deadlier than the flu in that sense.

"So it's only an issue with reproducing, so say a woman had there tubes tied."

The woman could still get sick, anyone can contract it.

Can't exactly give birth, and would require surgery (I think)

Basically infertility without operation and pain.

I must be tired. I normally type better than that.

"The main issue with it, is it causes severe birth defects. It causes babies' heads to stop developing, and they're born with small brains and heads.

Oh okay. Thanks for the clarification.
