The recent outbreak of Zika virus infection in Brazil has aroused considerable media interest due to its association with neurological malformations in children born from mothers infected by the virus and to its association with Guillain-Barre syndrome in adults. This relationship has led to the World Health Organisation declaring the current epidemic as a "Public Health Emergency of International Concern". Controversy also emerged on the advisability of delaying or changing the location of the Olympic and Paralympic Games, which were held in August at various locations in Brazil. In this article, we review the available evidence on the risk of Zika and dengue virus infection in individuals who travel to endemic countries, especially for multitudinous events.
近期巴西爆发的寨卡病毒感染引起了媒体的广泛关注，原因在于其与感染该病毒的母亲所生儿童的神经畸形有关，以及与成人吉兰 - 巴雷综合征有关。这种关联致使世界卫生组织宣布当前疫情为“国际关注的突发公共卫生事件”。对于推迟或更改于8月在巴西各地举办的奥运会和残奥会的地点是否明智也出现了争议。在本文中，我们回顾了前往流行国家的个人，尤其是参加众多活动的人感染寨卡病毒和登革热病毒风险的现有证据。
