- ScottBurson 10y agoThis appears to be true: http://www.cdc.gov/zika/vector/range.html http://www.cdc.gov/zika/vector/range.html The range shown here includes all of the Southeast and Texas, much of the southern Midwest, and California up to and including the Bay Area.
- patall 10y agoThis is only the range of Aedes aegypti. Whether a particular strain of the mosquito can carry Zika remains to be seen (though quite likely) as Aedes aegypti is very heterogenous.
