PAA Joins Friends of NICHD to Urge Support for Zika Research 

03-25-2020 15:03

We all agree that funding focused on the virus’ epidemiology, vector control and vaccine development to combat this emergent public health threat are essential. However, research into the screening, diagnosis and management of pregnant women infected with Zika is also urgently needed. The link between Zika and microcephaly has been confirmed by scientists, and as more information emerges about the range of child outcomes that result from Zika virus, we urge you to ensure that the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute for Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) receives funding in any emergency supplemental to conduct biomedical, behavioral, and social science research directly related to Zika and pregnancy.
