pdfExplore PUERTO
RICO!
Protect yourself from mosquito bites as you
enjoy every corner of this beautiful island!
Mosquitoes spread many
types of viruses that can
cause diseases like Zika,
dengue, and chikungunya.
Zika can also be
spread through sex.
Apply insect repellent to exposed skin
every day. If using sunscreen, apply it
before the repellent. Wear light weight,
long-sleeved shirts and pants and
light colors.
Protect yourself and your
partner by using a condom
every time you have sex or
by not having sex, especially
if you are pregnant.
After you leave the island:
Prevent mosquito
bites for 3 weeks
after leaving an
area with Zika.
Use a condom for 8 weeks
after returning from an area
with Zika. If you develop
symptoms of Zika, use a
condom for 6 months after
your symptoms begin.
