“Florida Gov. Rick Scott declared a state of emergency today in the four counties where people have been diagnosed with the Zika virus.
The four counties are Miami-Dade, Hillsborough, Lee and Santa Rosa.
There have been nine people in total who have been diagnosed with the Zika virus in Florida, though health officials believe that all of them contracted the disease while outside of the U.S.
Scott said he wanted the state to be prepared for the chance that the virus could start to be spread from mosquito to person within the state. The Aedes aegypti mosquito that is the primary vector of Zika virus infections is present in the southeast portion of the country, including Florida, though in winter the mosquito populations are low.”
