[quote=Anonymous]I live in a Zika warned country and am starting ivf this month down here. I do not live in a region of the country that is at high risk. My OB explained that things are nuanced. Specifically, the mosquitos that carry Zika also carry Dengue and Malaria and Chikungunya. You can look at the incidences of those diseases in countries and regions and have a sense of the likelihood of a Zika outbreak that will affect you. We live in a region of 450,000 people which saw only 55 cases of dengue last year. I am doing my ivf with the care and support of my rational Doctor. The Zika connection to the birth defects is not yet proven. I'm not saying it's not awful, but it is very unlikely and probably an unnecessary panic, and we cannot just stop the world for it.
