We assessed how community education efforts influenced pregnant women's Zika prevention behaviors during the 2016 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-Puerto Rico Department of Health Zika virus response. Efforts included Zika virus training, distribution of Zika prevention kits, a mass media campaign, and free home mosquito spraying. We used telephone interview data from pregnant women participating in Puerto Rico's Women, Infants, and Children Program to test associations between program participation and Zika prevention behaviors. Behavior percentages ranged from 4% (wearing long-sleeved shirt) to 90% (removing standing water). Appropriate mosquito repellent use (28%) and condom use (44%) were common. Receiving a Zika prevention kit was significantly associated with larvicide application (odds ratio [OR] 8.0) and bed net use (OR 3.1), suggesting the kit's importance for lesser-known behaviors. Offer of free residential spraying was associated with spraying home for mosquitoes (OR 13.1), indicating that women supported home spraying when barriers were removed.
我们评估了社区教育工作在 2016 年美国疾病控制与预防中心-波多黎各卫生部寨卡病毒应对期间对孕妇寨卡预防行为的影响。这些努力包括寨卡病毒培训、寨卡预防工具包的分发、大众媒体宣传活动以及免费上门灭蚊。我们使用了参加波多黎各妇女、婴儿和儿童计划的孕妇的电话访谈数据,以测试参与该计划与寨卡预防行为之间的关联。行为百分比从 4%(穿长袖衬衫)到 90%(清除积水)不等。适当使用驱蚊剂(28%)和避孕套(44%)较为常见。收到寨卡预防工具包与使用杀幼虫剂(优势比 [OR] 8.0)和使用蚊帐(OR 3.1)显著相关,表明该工具包对鲜为人知的行为很重要。提供免费住宅喷雾与为灭蚊而喷洒住宅(OR 13.1)相关,表明当消除障碍时,女性支持家庭喷雾。
