WHO Press Conference
WHO update on global response to microcephaly, neurological disorders and Zika virus.
WHO has launched a global prevention and control strategy to guide its international response to the spread of Zika virus infection and the neonatal malformations and neurological conditions associated with it.
The strategy includes working with partners to investigate and respond to increases in microcephaly and other neurological disorders in areas where there are also Zika outbreaks, to contain the spread of Zika virus, and fast track R & D, and boost preparedness in at risk countries.
Zika has catalysed immediate action to put into place some of the practical processes that will underpin WHO’s new programme on outbreaks and emergencies.
WHO will also give an overview of the vector control measures that work to prevent Zika.

WHO Press Conference
WHO is currently mapping existing R&D for Zika in order to prioritize medical products and approaches that should be fast-tracked into development.
Until today, most research that could be useful for Zika has been carried out on other flaviviruses – such as dengue or yellow fever.
WHO’s R&D efforts on Zika are part of the overall work on a roadmap – the R&D Blueprint - for better R&D preparedness based on the experience of the R&D work carried out during the Ebola outbreak.
Dr Marie-Paule Kieny, Assistant Director-General, Health Systems and Innovation, WHO
