“…This is, however, non-specific and indistinguishable from 'classic' exanthemas such as measles, rubella, or scarlet fever. The most dreaded complications are microcephaly in cases of prenatal Zika virus transmission to the fetus, and Guillain-Barré syndrome which is associated with previous Zika virus infections [89][90][91][92][93]. There is no specific treatment, so prevention includes protection from mosquito bites and avoidance of sexual contacts in endemic areas (Africa, Asia, Central and South America).…”

They have, however, also been reported in Europe (South of France, Spain, Italy).…”

“…Arbovirus-Infektionen, unter anderem Zika, Chikungunya und Dengue, werden von denselben Vektoren übertragen, den Stechmücken der Spezies Aedes aegypti (afrikanische Tigermücke) und Aedes albopictus (asiatische Tigermücke), die in Asien und Südamerika weit verbreitet sind [89][90][91][92][93][94][95][96][97] . Sie wurden jedoch auch bereits in Europa beobachtet (Südfrankreich, Spanien, Italien).…”
