Overview
The most common symptoms of Zika virus infection include fever and maculopapular rash. Additional symptoms include arthralgia, conjunctivitis, myalgia, headache, retro-orbital pain, and vomiting. The diagnosis of Zika is based on person's recent travel history, symptoms, and test results.
History
Specific areas of focus when obtaining a history from the patient include any history of:
- Prior residence in or travel to an areas with local ZIKV transmission.
- Recent sexual exposure to a person who resided in or travelled to an areas with local ZIKV transmission (With or without diagnosis of ZIKV infection or suggestive symptoms).
- History of recent blood transfusion.
- History of recent laboratory exposure of ZIKV (injuries from sharps, etc).
Symptoms
- The symptoms of Zika virus infection are similar to those of other arboviral infections such as dengue fever and chikungunya.
- Many patients infected with Zika won't have symptoms or will only have mild symptoms. For this reason, many people (approximately 80%) might not realize they have been infected.
- The pre-symptomatic period varies from 3-12 days, during which viremia may occur.
- Symptoms of Zika virus infection include the following:[1][2][3]
