India records its first three cases of Zika virus infection
The WHO on Friday confirmed India's first three cases of Zika virus infections, all from the same area in Ahmedabad. While the first detection was made in February 2016, the second was reported in November 2016, and third in January 2017. Zika infection during pregnancy causes microcephaly, which is a birth defect causing baby's head to be smaller than normal.
