"Since WHO declared the Zika virus epidemic a public health emergency of international concern in 2016, there remain no licensed vaccines, therapeutics, or diagnostic tests for routine antenatal screening, leaving the world critically vulnerable to future epidemics. To address the absence of essential tools to detect and mitigate Zika virus transmission, a cadre of experts developed a priority agenda for Zika virus research and development, based on extensive literature reviews and input from a meeting of 125 global thought leaders."
