The Zika Virus Presence

The recent rise of Zika cases in the city of Miami, and particularly in the areas of Wynwood and Miami Beach, has generated doubts about the likelihood of massive attendance by art enthusiasts who each year participate in the events and fairs generated around Art Basel Miami Beach during the month of December. The fumigations performed daily and the arrival of winter, which scares away the Aedes aegypti mosquito, could stop the alarm and fear experienced by many people. There are also personal measures that can be taken, such as the consumption of B-complex, whose odor on the skin scares mosquitos away and is imperceptible to humans. The use of repellent, light colored clothing and long sleeves are some of the other recommendations that may help people deal with the situation.
