6 155 The Possibility of Sexual Transmission and Recommendation for Infection Control of the Zika Virus Yu-Chen Chieng 1, Ching-Tzu Hung 2, Chia-Lin Chen 1, Wei-Ru Lin 1,2 1 Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Internal Medicine 2 Infection Control Center, Kaohsiung Medical University Hospital, Kaohsiung Medical University, Kaohsiung, Taiwan The Zika virus disease outbreak has continued to spread internationally since May Infection during pregnancy contributes to fetal congenital brain abnormalities, making the disease a public health emergency of international concern. Traditionally, the Zika virus is transmitted through the bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes. However, recent case reports and studies have shown that sexual transmission is a possible route, including vaginal intercourse, anal intercourse, and fellatio. Transmission from a person with symptomatic Zika virus infection to a sexual partner, which occurred before, during or after the onset of Zika symptoms is likely. Zika virus was detected in the blood, urine, saliva, and semen of infected patients. It had a higher viral load and longer persistence in semen than viremia. Thus, these could be used as diagnostic tools and intervention strategies for the control of the Zika virus infection. The World Health Organization issued and updated an interim guideline for the prevention of sexual transmission of the Zika virus, and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provided a recommendation for women of reproductive age with possible Zika virus exposure. The Taiwan Centers for Disease Control may develop a policy on whether asymptomatic persons, pregnant women, or women attempting contraception with possible Zika virus exposure should undergo Zika virus testing. Key words: Catheter-associated urinary tract infections, asymptomatic urinary tract infections, bundle care, antibiotics 106 8
