According to the CDC, the Zika virus has spread rapidly throughout the Americas, including 832 documented cases of local transmission in U.S. territories, 122 of which involve pregnant women. In addition, health authorities have recorded 544 travel-related cases of Zika in the 50 states and Washington, D.C., including 157 cases in pregnant women (through May 12, 2016). The U.S territories are of significant concern, particularly Puerto Rico.

Recognizing the strengths and expertise that Bayer brings to address public health problems, the CDC Foundation reached out to Bayer for assistance on the CDC’s extensive Zika virus preparedness and response efforts.
