pregnant women have been urged to stay away from neighborhoods they were focused on. i want to be clear, our public health experts do not expect to see the widespread outbreaks of zika that we have seen in brazil are in puerto rico. we expect to see more cases. even though the symptoms for most are mild, many may never know they have it. we've seen the complications can be severe. i want to encourage every american to learn what they can do to stop zika. in addition, congress needs to do its job.

research and new vaccines, and trials in humans that cost money. my administration proposed a request for more funding in february. not only did the republican led congress not pass our request, they worked to cut it and then left for summer recess. our , the folks on the front lines have been doing their best. the money we need to fight zika is running out. he situation is getting critical. without funding critical trials in the possibilities of a vaccine could be delayed. this is not the time for politics.

we know of 1800 cases of zika connected to travel and that includes 500 pregnant women. zika is present in almost every part of puerto rico. we have the local transmissions in florida and there will be more. congress is on a summer recess. a lot of folks talk about protecting i want to urge the american people to call members of congress and tell them to do their job. with that, i'm going to take some questions and start with someone who just assume the most powerful office in the land,
