">Infection with the Zika virus (ZIKV), which is primarily transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, has become a significant global health threat, especially for pregnant women. The virus can also be transmitted through sexual contact, blood transfusions and from mother to fetus. ZIKV infection during pregnancy is associated with severe congenital anomalies, most notably microcephaly, a condition in which children are born with abnormally small heads and underdeveloped brains. Other complications include stillbirths, miscarriages and neurological disorders in newborns, collectively referred to as congenital Zika syndrome (CZS). Zika infection in pregnant women often manifests itself through mild symptoms such as fever, skin rash, joint pain and conjunctivitis. However, due to the potential risk to the fetus, vaccination is crucial to reduce the burden of Zika-related birth defects. Currently, there is no licensed vaccine specifically against the Zika virus, although several vaccine candidates are in development, including live attenuated vaccines, inactivated vaccines and DNA-based vaccines. The main challenge in developing a Zika vaccine for pregnant women is to ensure the safety of both the mother and the developing fetus. Preclinical and clinical studies focus on efficacy and safety to avoid adverse outcomes. In addition, global vaccination efforts are focused on regions where Zika transmission is endemic, particularly in Central and South America, Southeast Asia and parts of Africa. Public health measures to combat Zika include vector control strategies and educating the public about preventive practices. Vaccination, once available, would be an important tool to protect pregnant women from Zika, prevent CZS and reduce the global impact of Zika-related pregnancy complications.</div><div style="text-align: justify; "><br></div><div style="text-align: justify; "><b>Keywords:</b> Zika virus, Aedes mosquitoes, Global health, congenital Zika syndrome, Global vaccination</div></div></p> <h3 class="webcolor">Biography</h3> <p><div>TBA</div> </p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <style> </style> <div class="footer-area bg-footer parallax ptb"> <div class="container"> <div class="row f-content"> <div class="col-sm-6 col-md-6 col-lg-5"> <img src="https://www.gynaecologysummit.scientexconference.com/frontfiles/assets/img/logo.png" alt="Scientex Conference Logo" class="footer-logo"/> <div class="location-div"> <h4>Organization Location</h4> <p>1309 Coffeen Avenue, STE 1200, Sheridan, Wyoming 82801, USA</p> <!-- <a href="https://www.gynaecologysummit.scientexconference.com/venue">View Location Map</a> --> </div> </div> <div class="col-sm-6 col-md-6 col-lg-4"> <div class="contact-info"> <h4 class=" footer-heading"><strong>Mail us at</strong></h4> <p>Program Enquiry<br> <a href="mailto:gynecologysummit@scientexconference.org">gynecologysummit@scientexconference.org</a> </p> <p>General Enquiry<br> <a href="mailto:contact@scientexconferences.com">contact@scientexconferences.com</a></p> <p>Registration Enquiry<br> <a href="mailto:finance@scientexconferences.com">finance@scientexconferences.com</a> <br> <a href="mailto:gynecologysummit@scientexevents.org">gynecologysummit@scientexevents.org</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="col-sm-6 col-md-6 col-lg-3"> <h4>Our Social Presence</h4> <div class="f-social"> <ul> <li><a href="" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-facebook-square"></i></a></li> <li><a href="" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-twitter-square"></i></a></li> <li><a href="" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-linkedin-square"></i></a></li> <li><a href="" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-youtube-square"></i></a></li></a></li> </ul> </div> <h4>Call us at</h4> <p class="mt-2"><i class="fa fa-phone"></i> USA : (+1) 217 291 7151</p> </div> <!--<div class="col-sm-6 col-md-6 col-lg-12"> <div class="tiny-content"> <h6> <small>Authorization Policy</small> </h6> <p class="text-justify"> <small> < ?php echo $rec_footer['authorization_policy']; ?></small> </p> </div> </div> --> </div> </div> </div> <div class="footer-bottom"> <div class="container"> <div class="row py-3 "> <div class="col-sm-4 inner-content"> <div class="copyright m-3"> <p>漏 2024 Scientex Conferences.
