It is the 10th case of imported Zika virus infection in Taiwan, according to the center.
The 50-year-old woman developed symptoms including headache, rashes and muscle ache on Wednesday and sought medical assistance the next day after developing a fever, according to the center. The center said it has asked the woman to prevent getting bitten by mosquitos and isolate herself until Sunday.
