Guatemala confirms 105 Zika cases, says more are likely
Guatemalan health officials said Saturday that at least 105 people there had been infected with Zika, the virus suspected of causing grave brain damage in newborns. Health Ministry epidemiologist Judith Garcia told the newspaper Prensa Libre that the 105 confirmed cases emerged from a total of 200 suspected cases, 68 of them from 2015. Zika is transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which also spreads dengue fever and the chikungunya virus.
