Alert Sounded For Virus
CHINESE authorities yesterday issued an alert for outbound travelers to guard against the Zika virus, which has spread in Southeast Asian countries.
The General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine asked travelers to affected countries to be extra cautious and to avoid mosquito bites.
Those coming from affected regions should declare themselves to the quarantine staff when entering China if they have suspect symptoms, such as fever, joint pain, rashes, conjunctivitis, headaches and muscle pain, said the administration. Besides Singapore, countries such as Malaysia and Thailand have also reported Zika cases.
