About Zika Virus Test | Zika Virus Testing in Lincoln
Zika virus is primarily transmitted through the bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes, though transmission can also occur through sexual contact, blood transfusion, and from a pregnant person to the fetus.
Most people infected with Zika virus do not develop symptoms. When symptoms occur, they are usually mild and may include fever, rash, joint pain, conjunctivitis, muscle pain, and headache. Symptoms typically begin a few days after exposure and resolve within about a week.
Testing for Zika virus can involve molecular methods that detect viral RNA, typically within the first week or two after symptom onset, or serologic methods that detect antibodies produced by the immune system. The choice of test and timing of collection depend on how long it has been since exposure or symptom onset.
Zika virus infection during pregnancy is associated with serious birth defects, including microcephaly and other neurologic complications. Because of this, testing may be recommended for pregnant people with possible exposure or symptoms, in consultation with a healthcare provider.
