Student at College of William & Mary has contracted the Zika virus

A student at the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, Va., has contracted the Zika virus, but appears to pose no health risk, according to school officials.

The student was traveling in Central America during the college’s winter break, officials said in an online statement.

The Zika virus, carried by mosquitos, is now in two dozen countries and territories across the Americas. Brazil has been reported as the epicenter, and some health experts believe it could cause an abnormally small head and brain in babies born to mothers who contracted Zika while pregnant.
