Argentine woman contracts Zika without leaving the country

A health official in the Argentine province of Cordoba reported on Friday that a woman had contracted the Zika virus without having left the country, bringing to nine the total number of cases reported nationwide. A major outbreak of the virus began in Brazil last year and has spread to many countries in the Americas. “We are thinking that the virus could have been transmitted sexually,” Cordoba health chief Francisco Fortuna told Radio Continental, adding that the patient had contact with a man who recently traveled to Colombia.
