Oh man, don't miss out because if tve absurd sensationalist reaction to zika! Unless you have another very good reason you can't go, or your girlfriend is pregnant, take the trip. Zika is not actually a bad viris, especially compared to other mosquito bourne illnesses such as dengue. It's just a mild flu, maybe less. Food poisoning would be a bigger worry

I'm based in Colombia and the reaction to zika in the West has been insane. It's been around for decades and actually nber been associated with infant malformities until Brazil last year. No cases of malformites in Colombia. There's actually strong evidence it's something other than zika causing that...
