Potential Birth Defects Associated with Zika and The Long-Term Health Effects of Zika Virus in Adults and Children

Zika virus infection during pregnancy can lead to severe birth defects, most notably microcephaly, where a baby’s head and brain are underdeveloped. Other potential birth defects include vision and hearing problems, joint issues, and developmental delays.

Continuous monitoring and medical support are vital for managing these health concerns.
