This study is a part of an ongoing
public health emergency response related to the Zika virus outbreak
in Puerto Rico. Results of the ZIRP Puerto Rico study will provide
critical data in establishing guidance for testing in pregnant
women and congenitally exposed infants with exposure to ZIKV. It
will also provide information on the association between persistent
ZIKV RNA in pregnant women and adverse outcomes or infection in
infants that can enable health care. This New ICR will continue the
work initiated in Emergency Collection Request, OMB #
0920-1189.
