Florida has another case of locally acquired Zika, while Brazil has begun using sterile mosquitoes to fight Aedes.
At least 5 people have contracted Zika in a small area in North Miami Beach.
As Florida announces new cases, health labs have noted a lag in testing for pregnant woman and the WHO says Asia will experience wider transmission.
Also, a new study provides evidence for the usefulness of IgM Zika testing for babies.
The WHO says it's still not clear if Zika-linked microcephaly cases in Thailand are tied to the strain that has circulated in Southeast Asia.
A study yesterday in Pediatrics showed how an urban health system achieved human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination rates of 89.8% in teen girls and 89.3% in teen boys by using low-cost interventions, including "bundling" the HPV vaccine with other vaccines, and offering vaccines at every healthcare visit.
Study today provides more evidence of a strong link between Zika and Guillain-Barre syndrome.
In research developments, a group from Brazil profiled 11 microcephaly cases, and another team described lessons learned from experimentally infecting monkeys.
Also, Florida continues to report a steady stream of locally aquired Zika cases: 14 of them over the last 2 reporting days.
Also, Thailand confirms 2 microcephaly cases, and CDC researchers publish a case series on US kids.
