Virus itself. Lack of knowledge and misinformation has stoked apprehension and fear among many. According to the World Health Organization some of the reasons why we dont know more about this disease include a relatively small proportion of about one in four, some say one in five of people develop symptoms, a virus only detectable for a few days and infected peoples blood. The failure of current tests to definitively distinguish zika from similar viruses such as dengue.
