            Zika vaccine 'within months'

A zika vaccine could be ready for human trials later this year.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases say will start  testing DNA vaccine by September. Scientists of Institute helped develop a vaccine for Ebola. Now they are trying do the same for Zika, with special focus on pregnant women because of the strongly suspected link between the virus and babies being born with underdeveloped brains.

Dr Fauci said the American vaccine will focus on pregnant women, and women of childbearing age, with a long term goal of offering a vaccine to everyone, particularly if that link to microcephaly is confirmed. He said the world had been in a similar situation in the early 1960, when rubella was causing.

Finally, they are banning women become pregnant, but my question is what will they do to fight the virus? eliminate the virus completely within a year or two and in that time we will be able to have children? I think  after Zika virus possibly will come another virus worse than we have now.
