See? Them little fuckers are trying to kill us real humans.

The evidence the Zika virus could have a disastrous effect on developing fetuses continues to pile up.

As initially reported by Statnews Jan. 10, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced having found the mosquito-borne virus in the placentas of two U.S. women who miscarried after traveling to areas where it was endemic. While it’s still unknown whether Zika is responsible for the miscarriages, the discovery is only the latest to support the idea that the virus can be transmitted from mother to fetus. The two cases are believed to be the first miscarriages linked to Zika in the U.S.

Zika, known to be relatively harmless to adults, has received a torrent of attention from the worldwide health community after it was traced to a mysterious rise in the number of infants born with smaller-than-healthy brains (microcephaly) in Brazil soon after an outbreak hit the nation last year.

Microcephaly is far from the only believed danger to be brought upon by Zika, though, with infants and, more rarely, adults also at risk of developing a neurological condition known as Guillain-Barré syndrome. Similar to other diseases like rubella and measles, miscarriages are now being considered a potential risk of fetal Zika infection. Also on Jan. 10, the CDC reported it found evidence of Zika virus infection in the brain and placental tissue of two miscarried fetuses and two newborns with microcephaly who died soon after delivery — all the cases originated in Brazil.

"It's absolutely possible for an infection, whether it be viral or bacterial, to result in a miscarriage," Zev Williams, an obstetrician-gynecologist at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine at Montefiore Medical Center in New York told the Washington Post. "Whether it was caused by Zika remains to be determined."

Nonetheless, Williams advised that people take precautions to avoid contracting or transmitting the virus if possible — a strategy most notably affirmed by the CDC, which has advised pregnant women to avoid travel to countries where Zika is ever-present.

Despite the precautionary measures, there’s still much debate over the exact scope of Zika’s influence on a developing fetus.

"What we don’t know is how many — do all women transmit [Zika] to their babies? I personally suspect the risk is not everyone," Dr. Albert Icksang Ko of the Yale School of Public Health told Medical Daily last month. "The risk is real, but we don’t know how much.”

What is known is that Zika is spreading. On Friday, the CDC announced the discovery of Zika cases being transmitted by the local mosquito population in Puerto Rico — the first locally acquired cases found in U.S.-owned land. While a large Zika outbreak in the mainland is very unlikely, the chance remains it will follow the lead of other mosquito-borne diseases, like dengue, and sporadically infect warmer areas such as the southern U.S. and Hawaii.
 
That's what you got out of the article? The virus was thought to have been fatal to the fetus, not the fetus endangering the mother.

My bad. Miscarriages are totally safe for real human ladies to endure. You should retroactively tell your father to encourage your mother to have one.

You obviously know nothing about obstetrics. Any pregnancy is a risk. How that pregnancy ends can vary innumerable ways. Yes, miscarriages, live births and abortions can have risks. The fact that those two pregnancies ended in miscarriages did not increase the risk of the underlying pregnancy. One would presume the mothers were wanting to carry through to term, and felt a tragic loss which you are making light of for idiotic and inaccurate "points" for your "team."

Why don"t you respect the rights and feelings of women who decide to carry their pregnancies to term?
 
. . . Cause miscarriages are hilarious.

Craps all over me? Project, much?

Three Babies With Disabilities Because of the Zika Virus May Have Already Been Aborted

A new Centers for Disease Control report on Thursday gave a picture of the first effects of the Zika virus on babies in the United States.

The CDC said three babies have been born in the U.S. with birth defects linked to the Zika virus, while three more were either miscarried or aborted, according to The Hill.

The virus has been linked to birth defects in newborns, one being microcephaly. The brain disorder is not typically fatal, but it can cause health problems throughout the child’s life. Abortion advocates have been using the link between the virus and microcephaly as an excuse to push for more abortions on babies with disabilities.

Here is more from the report:

The CDC is following the first case of a baby born with Zika-caused birth defects last month in New Jersey.

The Associated Press reported that in all of the cases, the mothers contracted Zika abroad. There has not yet been a case of someone contracting Zika in the continental United States, although that is expected to begin this summer.

The CDC said the birth defects include microcephaly, which is when a baby is born with a head that is too small, causing developmental problems as well as other brain defects.
“What we are reporting is moms who had laboratory evidence of Zika virus infection and the baby had birth defects consistent with Zika virus infection,” Dr. Denise Jamieson of the CDC told NBC News. “Some, but not all, of the infants have had evidence of Zika virus infection.”

Three Babies With Disabilities Because of the Zika Virus May Have Already Been Aborted

NOW I finally get the humor in this thread about fetal contraction of the zika virus!

L-O-L!!!!

The thread-starter is birth-defect survivor!

Explains the learning disabilities, the chin...

Lolololololololoko
 
5 less possible rape victims for poor little Jr.....

But who gives a fuck about the mothers. It's all about him after all.

Monsanto is the devil. Along with Dow-Agri. I know Dow is evil. I used to work for them fuckers.

very interesting link

As reported by the Argentinian doctors in their report, Zika virus has never been known to cause brain deformations in children:

Previous Zika epidemics did not cause birth defects in newborns, despite infecting 75% of the population in those countries. Also, in other countries such as Colombia there are no records of microcephaly; however, there are plenty of Zika cases.

So Luk is trolling the abortion/miscarriage waters for laffs now. Sweet.

He missed the only really funny thing in his massive cut and paste abortion joke though....

The article was published on Valentines Day.
 
People have said that the Zika virus might be an artificial laboratory concoction to sterilize impoverished women in South America.

Some people are suggesting a possible link between luk's new av and reports of spontaneous laughter across north america.

read hard rom's link:
A dramatic increase of congenital malformations, especially microcephaly in newborns, was detected and quickly linked to the Zika virus by the Brazilian Ministry of Health. However, they fail to recognise that in the area where most sick persons live, a chemical larvicide producing malformations in mosquitoes has been applied for 18 months, and that this pois"Pyriproxyfen is a growth inhibitor of mosquito larvae, which alters the development process from larva to pupa to adult, thus generating malformations in developing mosquitoes and killing or disabling them."on (pyroproxyfen) is applied by the State on drinking water used by the affected population.

The larvicide sprayed in Brazil, for example, is called "pyriproxyfen," and it's manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical, a corporation known to be a "strategic partner" of Monsanto. The Argentinian doctors' report lists Sumitomo as a "subsidiary" of Monsanto. As GM Watch reports, "Pyriproxyfen is a growth inhibitor of mosquito larvae, which alters the development process from larva to pupa to adult, thus generating malformations in developing mosquitoes and killing or disabling them."

Rubio: Zika-infected women shouldn't have right to abortions

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said pregnant women who are infected with the Zika virus shouldn't be able to get abortions.

"I understand a lot of people disagree with my view, but I believe that all human life is worthy of protection of our laws. And when you present it in the context of Zika or any prenatal condition, it’s a difficult question and a hard one," Rubio told Politico.
"But if I’m going to err, I’m going to err on the side of life."

The virus, which can cause severe birth defects, has started to spread throughout Florida. It has been linked to microcephaly, a condition in which babies are born with abnormally small heads.

"Obviously, microcephaly is a terrible prenatal condition that kids are born with. And when they are, it’s a lifetime of difficulties," Rubio said.

"So I get it. I’m not pretending to you that that’s an easy question you asked me. But I’m pro life. And I’m strongly pro life. I believe all human life should be protected by our law, irrespective of the circumstances or condition of that life."

Rubio noted he has voted for every piece of legislation on the Zika virus that he could. He was the first Republican to co-sponsor President Obama's $1.9 million Zika-fighting legislation, which ultimately failed.
