Zika virus is spread to people through mosquito bites. The most common symptoms of Zika virus disease are fever, rash, joint pain, and conjunctivitis (red eyes). The illness is usually mild with symptoms lasting from several days to a week. There is no specific anti-viral treatment for Zika virus infection available. Symptoms like headache and fever can be treated symptomatically. Hospital care is indicated in severe illnesses or if complications arise.
