They were out in the trucks last night, spraying against mosquitoes and it is about time. The Zika virus is a very bad thing for pregnant women. I think it is wise to remain indoors at dusk and wear long sleeve shirts or blouses, as the case may be and just don't go out after sunset because the mosquitoes come out right at this time and also in the early morning just at daybreak. For the latest about this recent outbreak of the mosquito born Zika virus, read the article below:

It seems like these people who have traveled out of the country have brought this back with them. Maybe travel abroad should be restricted at this time.

I wish it were that simple, but they tell us that intimate contact is one way the disease is spread and then they bring it back in their blood stream and if an uninfected person gets intimate they get the disease and if an uninfected mosquito bites an infected person it gets passed on from mosquito to person and so on and so forth.
