Zika Resources
If you believe you might be infected, take measures to prevent mosquito bites and consult a physician immediately. If you are planning to travel to a Zika infected area, especially if you are pregnant or considering becoming pregnant, talk to your doctor about the risks.
Certain Medicaid beneficiaries may be eligible for insect repellant prescription, condoms, and diagnostic testing. To find out more, look below in the resources section or talk to your doctor. Medicaid signup can be found here.
