09-12-2021 8
Aedes aegypti
Day time biter

joint pain, malaise, headache
•Lasts for 2 to 7 days
•Viremia –3rd and 5th day of onset
•Severe forms of disease and fatalities are rare

Zika virus disease- Case definitions
•Suspected Zika virus disease
Acute onset of fever, maculo-papular rash, arthralgia in
those with history of travel to areas with ongoing
transmission during 2 weeks preceding onset of illness
•Confirmed Zika virus disease
Suspected case with positive laboratory results (RT-PCR)

09-12-2021 18
Diagnosis
 Samples- Blood, urine, semen
• Nucleic acid testing-
RT-PCR- <7 days (serum)
7-20 days (urine)
• Serology
09-12-2021 19
Prevention and Control
I. Individual level
1. Management of general case
• Self limiting
• No specific antiviral or vaccine
• Symptomatic management
-Rest
-Plenty of oral fluids
-Management of fever and pain
• Isolation of cases under bed net
09-12-2021 20
Prevention and Control (continued)
2. Management in pregnant women
•Ongoing transmission- Lab testing
•Symptomatic pregnant females
-Early medical care
-Regular follow up ultrasound scan- microcephaly, developmental
abnormality
-Counselling – possible adverse effects, option for termination
09-12-2021 21
Prevention and Control (continued)
II. Family level
1. Source reduction
2. Use mosquito repellents
3. Wear light coloured full sleeve dress
4. Household screens- windows/doors
5. Bed nets-daytime - infants and children
09-12-2021 22
Prevention and Control (continued)
III. Community level
1. Source reduction- DRY DAY
09-12-2021 23
Day Place
Thursday JHI visits 50 houses –
Vector survey
Friday Schools
Saturday Offices, shops, other
establishments
Sunday Houses
Prevention and Control (continued)
2. Vector surveillance
Larval surveys
• House index
• Container index
• Breteau index
09-12-2021 24
Prevention and Control (continued)
3. Chemical control
a) Larvicide –Temephos
b) Adulticide –Only during outbreak
Integrated vector management
09-12-2021 25
Prevention and Control (continued)
IV. International airports and seaports
1. Quarantine and isolation facilities
2. Aircraft disinfection
3. WHO- IHR- Aedes aegypti index=0
(400 m)
09-12-2021 26
SUMMARY
•Arboviral disease- transmitted by Aedes mosquito
•1 in 4 symptomatic
•Symptoms include- Fever, rash, conjunctivitis, arthralgia, headache
•Mild- 2 to 7 days; few- complications
•Pregnant females and fetus at risk
•Symptomatic management
•Prevention- mosquito control

Editor's Notes

  • #4 Infection rate-73%, all age group affected, no severe dz/hospitalization/death
  • #5 PHEIC explain
  • #10 Dengue, JE, Yellow fever
  • #13 Breast feeding?
  • #14 Viremia can last upto a week, remains longer in semen than in blood But still we are very concerned about ----complications
  • #20 Zika IgM followed by Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT)
