whether they had zika or don't. and for the women who have the zika virus during pregnancy, we need to come up with ways of thatsing the likelihood they will have impacted fetuses. theher that is measuring duration or using a combination of ultrasound and other types of test that have not been developed. i think that will be critically important. so it is doing things that can help manage the risks that we need to be focused a lot of attention on. do you have anything to add to that? to fill in the primary gaps in research? iso the idea that this is a critical time. we can get critical information to people who are scared. a couple of other areas that are is aboutortant, one the persistence of the virus in different body sites. right now, our resolution is about sexual transmission is based on their little information about how long the virus can persist. of the harmtion that it causes and we are interesting. about whether it does clear in semen. is the work on diagnostics. i am very proud of my centers for disease

virus in nucleic acid for zika. then we assess whether there's a difference in the risk for guillain-barrÉ. >> you spoke in your testimony about how uniquely valuable the research being done now is even if it's on small samples etc.. what would you identify as the major gaps in research right now if you are in a position of -- where would you target most aggressively the research dollars to fill in those knowledge gaps? >> i think that there are a couple of very. [inaudible] we don't know the extent to which mosquitoes and sexual transmission -- [inaudible] that may or may not have an impact. it may be that there are other types besides those of the party been identified that are also able to harbor or spread the virus. those studies are underway but they are far from being complete. for example in africa it's not the aedes aegypti responsible for spreading the zika so there other types of mosquitoes that are also present in the u.s.. we need to assess their risk so that we can figure out their risk factors that are

sharyl: he wrote about "reporting on zika when you have zika" for the "new york times."onathan: zika was extremely mild. initially get it, it's not nearly as bad as most mosquito-borne diseases could be, but the jury is still out on what the long-term effects are. sharyl: there are mixed signals when it comes to the upcoming summer olympics in brazil. the world health organizations says the zika risk isn't serious enough to move the games. whatever questions remain, white house press secretary josh earnest says congress has all the information it needs to act on zika funding. press sec. earnest: ignorance is not an excuse. they've had opportunities to ask their questions. there's ample information that's been provided by the administration. sharyl: cdc wouldn't give us a detailed breakdown of exactly how it would spend the money. here's the general information that's been provided -- $699 million would go to medicare and medicaid, and "domestic response." $416 million to puerto rico, the state department, and "international response." $335 million for the u.s. agency for

zika infection. we probably have many more than that, and there would be people who see, and through the detection efforts, so we probably have had thousands and thousands of travelers. we know of over 500. there's issues with probability, but the reality is one bitings and if you're pregnant, your baby could be harmed. that's just a phenomenon problem to be working on, and that really motivates us. cdc has over 1,000 people who have been part of our response already, and there are actually 11 different centers of cdc are involved, because it's birth defects and mosquito experts, infectious disease folks, so the probability only gets you so far if it's your pregnancy. >> the other issue that ann was saying, it is counter-intuitive, you come back from brazil or puerto rico, you think, i made it, why should the put on the repellant. it's complicated and confounded by the fact that it's sexually transmitted also, so men who return from -- it's sexually travel to our knowledge from men to women, but not

but then zika happened. >> the zika virus and its potentially devastating consequences continue to spread. >> growing fears now among olympic athletes and fans worldwide over the looming threat of the zika virus. >> we already have a pandemic on our hands. what could happen? >> reporter: brazil is the epicenter of the mosquito born zika virus. in advance of the rio games, olympic organizers and local authorities have been spraying facilities and struggling to assure the world that it is safe for athletes and tourists to come here. a group of international media, which included pbs newshour, was invited to film health inspectors in rio's jacarepagua neighborhood last week. mosquito eradication measures like these have been taking place across the city. at the local health clinic, doctors told us that zika is a much smaller problem right now. >> ( translated ): in the summer months we had more zika cases, because we have more mosquitoes. we had around 10 cases per week. now we've seen a decline. currently we have about one case every 15 days, very little. >> reporter: even though they are c

this bottom line with zika is, if you're pregnant, don't go to a place where zika is spreading.u're a male and have been someplace where zika is spreading and your partner is pregnant, use a condom. this is unprecedented. the first tim we had a virus spread by a mosquito that can cause birth -- cause a berth -- a birth defect. >> a woman bitten bay mosquito with the virus, is it always transmitted to the child? >> we don't know exactly how often but there are women who have been infected with zika but given birth to apparently normal babies. it may be months or years before we know for sure whether that baby is entirely normal. but the risk appears to be especially early in the pregnancy, and these mosquitoes are only spreading zika in parts of the world where zika is spreading. that doesn't include anywhere on me mainland of the united states as of today but we're concern because summer is heating up and so is zika. >> what's the best form of control here? the short term, is the best method of dealing with this just really tight mosquito control? >> well, the best thing is, if

zika is different. but when you think of vulnerable populations like the children of this country, and newborn babies, essentially receiving a life sentence in terms of developmental disabilities -- that is the focus. that is why we are all concerned. most individuals who contract the zika won't even know that they had it. -- will be a symptomatically asymptomatical. then why are we worried, but can mosquito borne illness cause birth defects. and we want to prevent as many birth defects as possible. the way to do that is to focus on pregnant women and women of childbearing age. host: we are talking with dr. next have billp coming in from georgia. caller: i just would like to make the comments that i agree with some of the experts -- this is overblown. basically that these tropical type diseases, whether they be areue or chikungunya basically found in the tropics, that this fear that is being generated in the united states is going to paralyze people. i think essentially what you are seeing is that these

officials are surprised by the zika rate in puerto rico. and it goes on, roughly 1% of recent blood donors in puerto rico showed signs of active infection with the zika virus, suggesting a substantial portion of the island's population will become infected. federal health officials reported on friday. they will go on to cite the statistics here that have been analyzed by the centers for disease control and prevention. and here's what they concluded. based on prior experience, dr. williamson of c.d.c. said he would not have expected so many zika-infected donors until late june or early july. the c.d.c. has estimated that as many as a quarter, a quarter of the island's 3.5 million people may become infected with zika virus this year. it's possible that thousands of pregnant women in puerto rico could be infected, dr. friedan, c.d.c.'s director told reuters, leading to -- quote -- dozens or hundreds of infants being born with microcephaly in the coming year -- end quote. mr. president, what is the republican majority waiting for in the united

zika is that mosquitoes. with ebola, it is not, the original cause somewhere in lives and not can spread out the change of transmission. 75% of the diseases you hear about, the new emerging diseases are sore and not it. that means an animal connection. if you move people out into the environment, into the jungle, they can infect dead and not deceive has a potential done to cause person-to-person transmission as we see with ebola or with murders, which is battling camels. somehow contact with camels is how you see the disease. it is not a surprise when we think about emerging infections can attend a come from africa or south america or parts of southeast asia we have a lot of connections with animals. her flu is another good example, or you have people in china and other parts of southeast asia. they are very close to their birds, chicken and this great opportunity for viruses to swap their genes and eventually a team and then become global pandemics. those are the environmental condition that each of these in

what is the distinction with zika?ifferent from other epidemics and diseases like ebola, for instance? joseph: ebola kills very quickly. zika is interesting in that, in fact, at least most of the more or are unharmed less harmed, but it infects stem cells of babies and adults. it goes directly into the brain and nervous system. that is how you see such a disgusting birth defect, horrible birth defects. one of the reasons why inovio jumped into making a vaccine for this is i was personally moved, as a father of young kids, personally moved by the picture of microcephaly in these babies and the impact they have on their families. alix: the other argument to the zika vaccine is maybe it is not needed because it is happy death rate that, say, it does not have the death rate that -- it does not have the death rate that comes say, ebola does, and maybe we will build immunity. joseph: scientists are learning more and more about the impact of zika even in healthy adults. a syndrome that is a horrible temporary paralysis, almos
