DPH Continues to Promote Zika Awareness Through Statewide Advertising Campaign

The Division of Public Health (DPH) continues to remind Delawareans to protect themselves from the Zika virus with support from a statewide advertising campaign launched last month. The campaign reminds travelers, particularly pregnant women, to take steps to prevent Zika. Zika has been found in several popular travel locations. Delaware's 17 confirmed Zika cases were all caused by mosquito bites while traveling abroad, however, there are warmer climates in the continental United States with local Zika transmission. Anyone planning a trip over the summer should educate themselves on Zika's dangers and how to prevent the disease before setting off for your vacation destination.
