Available data reported suggests a downward trend in reporting of Zika virus cases in the Region of the Americas. However, some countries and territories (Dominican Republic, French overseas collectivities in the Americas, Haiti, and Venezuela) are experiencing an increase in Zika virus reports. Due to delays in reporting and further geographic spread of Zika virus to areas that have the vector-mosquito capable of transmission, the epidemiological curve is subject to change. De acuerdo a los datos disponibles notificados por los Estados Miembros, la tendencia sugiere una disminución de casos de virus Zika en la Región de las Américas. Sin embargo, en algunos países y territorios (República Dominicana, territorios franceses en el continente americano, Haití y Venezuela) se observa un aumento en la notificación de casos. Debido al retraso en la notificación y a la mayor propagación geográfica del virus Zika hacia las áreas donde está presente el mosquito-vector, la curva epidemiológica está sujeta a cambios.
