You have a better chance of being a victim of a terrorist attack than contracting zika.

I'm speaking of BOTH...and a LOT of other nasty diseases.

"Zika virus is a mosquito-borne flavivirus that was first identified in Uganda in 1947 in monkeys through a network that monitored yellow fever. It was later identified in humans in 1952 in Uganda and the United Republic of Tanzania"

WHO | Zika virus

I've been to many countries having malaria and dengue fever, which are transmitted by mosquito. Funny how no one ran around in a panic over the prospects of being bitten by a bug. I even had dengue fever from a bite, most likely while on one of my weekly visits to the rain forest. No, it's no laughing matter. However, it is not something for anyone to panic over. Oh, and I did not get the fever from Africa. It was in South America. I am not going to allow the prospect of zika interfere with my lifestyle any more than I allowed the prospect of getting stung by a "killer bee" bother me a couple decades ago, during that scare. Like I said before, if you are prone to bug bites (some are more than others) then use Deet. This does not have to be mind crippling.

Question: How did they determine that zika affected a woman's brain function? How could they tell how any woman's brain functions to begin with? Chill folks, just joking. After all, that is an ongoing and decades long joke.

Instead of a zero value...they got a negative...it actually sucked sense out of the people around her...to be lost forever.

Like their posts do here.

It's a "joke", a "stereotype" for a reason...it's true.

Stereotypes ARE true...that's how they come about...people see a common trait or action and voila...a stereotype is born. If you're not allowed to talk about it, political correctness, you get "jokes".

Hmm, since it was the Democrats that refused to vote for the money, you are being just a bit disingenuous.

Ah hah! Now we know what is affected Hillary. It's the zika virus. It has affected her brain and makes her bobble headed and rubber legged.
