Alert World Health Organization Officially Declares Zika Virus a International Emergency
The World Health Organization has declared the mosquito-borne Zika virus to be an international public health emergency as the disease linked to thousands of suspected cases of birth defects in Brazil spreads rapidly.
WHO Director-General Margaret Chan says an international coordinated response is needed to improve detection and speed work on a vaccine and better diagnostics.
U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention head Thomas Frieden said the declaration “calls the world to action” on Zika. T
he emergency designation was recommended following criticism of a hesitant response so far.
The move should help fast-track international action and research priorities.
