CNN News:Zika病毒疫苗仍在研发中 预计2018年可广泛使用

International health officials don`t know how far the dangerous Zika virus was spread. But with spring bringing warmer temperatures to the northern hemisphere, their concern that the mosquito that carry Zika could bring the virus north of Brazil, the country hit hardest so far.

国际卫生官员表示对Zika病毒的蔓延程度并不了解。但是由于春天，北半球气温回升，他们担忧携带Zika病毒的蚊子可能会将病毒带到巴西北部。目前巴西的Zika病毒情况最为严峻。

Zika is not threatening to many adults who get it. Most don`t even have symptoms. Those who do may have a few days of a fever, headache or muscle pain.

许多成年人感染Zika病毒并不会有生命危险。但是很多人甚至没有任何症状。即使有症状的也只是发烧、头痛、肌肉酸痛等持续数天。

But the unborn babies of pregnant women who get Zika are at risk of microcephaly, a disease that slows brain development and can cause lifelong problems. And officials are now linking Zika to premature birth, as well as eye problems and nervous system diseases in babies.

但是，孕妇感染Zika病毒，其婴儿就有可能头小畸形。因为这种病毒会减慢大脑发育、导致终身问题。现在官员认为Zika病毒与早产儿、以及婴儿的眼部疾病和神经系统疾病也有关系。

There is no treatment and no cure for Zika. But researchers are racing to develop a vaccine for it, and they could be ready to test one later this year. If everything goes smoothly with that and it`s proven effective, a vaccine could be widely available to the public by 2018.

现在还没有Zika病毒的治疗和痊愈办法。但是研究人员正在努力研发疫苗。，并准备于一年之后进行疫苗测试。如果研究进展顺利，同时疫苗有效，则疫苗可能会在2018年向公众广泛使用。
