Zika virus

Zika virus ( 16 Questions)

The nurse educates a patient about Zika virus prevention. Which statement by the patient indicates a need for further teaching?


Correct Answer: D

Choice D rationale:

The statement "I don't need to worry about Zika virus if I only have flu-like symptoms" indicates a need for further teaching. Zika virus infection can present with flu-like symptoms, and it is important for the patient to be aware that they should seek medical attention and get tested for Zika if they experience such symptoms, especially if they have a recent travel history to a Zika virus transmission area. The statement shows a lack of understanding about the potential risk of Zika virus infection and the importance of timely testing and management.
