Editorial Cartoon by Graeme MacKay, The Hamilton Spectator Ð Wednesday August 3, 2016 CDC issues historic travelÊwarning over Miami ZikaÊoutbreak The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued an unprecedented travel warning Monday, advisingÊpregnant women and their partners not to travel to a small community just north of downtown Miami,Êwhere Zika is actively circulating. This is the first time the CDC has warned people not to travel to anÊAmerican neighborhood for fear of catching an infectious disease, according to agency spokesman TomÊSkinner. The warning came after 10 additional people in Florida were found to have been infected with Zika virusÊafter being bitten by local mosquitoes, bringing the total to 14.Ê Florida Gov. Rick Scott and CDC Director Dr. Tom Frieden announced the development in separate newsÊconferences Monday. The new cases were found by door-to-door surveys of 200 people in their homesÊand businesses, and they were identified by urine and blood samples that tested positive for the virus or anÊantibody.Ê Late last week, Florida state health officials confirmed that fourÊpeople had contracted Zika from mosquitoes in theÊsame 150-square-meter area. It's a mixed-use development with upscale asÊwell as economically stressed businesses and homes, whichÊFrieden said complicates mosquito control efforts.
