Sentences with phrase «similar flaviviruses»

Zika is similar to other members of its viral family, the flaviviruses.

So far there are no reports of the Zika virus entering the U.S. blood supply, but the FDA writes that «the risk of blood transmission is considered likely based on the most current scientific evidence of how Zika virus and similar viruses (flaviviruses) are spread and recent reports of transfusion - associated infection outside of the U.S.»
