The Zika virus was first isolated in 1947 in Zika Forest (Uganda), in a Rhesus monkey during a study of the transmission of wild yellow fever. It was first isolated in humans in 1952 (Uganda, Tanzania). In 1968 the virus was detected in human samples in Nigeria. El virus se aisló por primera vez en 1947 en los bosques de Zika (Uganda), en un mono Rhesus durante un estudio sobre la transmisión de la fiebre amarilla selvática. Aunque la infección en seres humanos se demostró por estudios serológicos en 1952 (Uganda y Tanzania), sólo hasta 1968 se logró aislar el virus a partir de muestras humanas en Nigeria.
