Virus de Zika probablemente se propaga por vía sexual de hombres asintomáticos a mujeres: estudio
Por Julie Steenhuysen
CHICAGO (Reuters) - Un nuevo estudio sobre el Zika divulgado
el viernes descubrió que el virus se podría transmitir por vía
sexual de un hombre a una mujer, incluso si el varón no ha
mostrado síntomas de infección.
El hallazgo se deriva de un reporte en Maryland, donde un
hombre que se infectó con el virus de Zika en República
Dominicana pero no mostró síntomas contagió a su pareja, quien
no viajó a un lugar donde se ha informado la propagación de la
enfermedad.
El estudio, publicado en un reporte semanal de los Centros
para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades, sugiere que la
transmisión sexual del virus de Zika no es menos probable en los
individuos asintomáticos que en aquellos con síntomas.
Las recomendaciones actuales para prevenir la transmisión
sexual del virus de Zika para los viajeros que regresan a
Estados Unidos difieren dependiendo de si la persona desarrolla
síntomas y si la pareja planea concebir un hijo, pero podrían
requerir cambios.
En otro reporte, funcionarios sanitarios de Puerto Rico
informaron que hasta 10 personas desarrollaron el desorden
neurológico conocido como síndrome de Guillain-Barré como
consecuencia de la infección con el virus de Zika.
Los estudios más recientes contribuyen a la evaluación del
impacto del Zika, un virus que anteriormente se consideraba como
leve pero que recientemente se ha demostrado que provoca la
grave malformación congénita conocida como microcefalia, al
igual que enfermedades neurológicas en adultos.
En Puerto Rico, donde el Zika llegó en el 2015, funcionarios
sanitarios han guardado registro sistemático de los casos de
Guillain-Barré luego de reportes en otros países que mostraron
un aumento en la incidencia del síndrome relacionado al virus.
El síndrome de Guillain-Barré, un desorden autoinmune en el
que el cuerpo se ataca a sí mismo, provoca el debilitamiento
gradual de las piernas, los brazos y la parte superior del
cuerpo, y en algunos casos parálisis temporal.
