Previsión de casos de infección por ZIKV en Europa contagiados en Brasil.

En un trabajo de Massad et al. ( Estimated Zika virus importations to Europe by travellers from Brazil  ) publicado en Global Health Action se ha estimado el número de casos de infecciones que se podrían producir en Europa en 2016, a partir de que Brasil ha podido tener entre medio millón y millón y medio de casos de infecciones por ZIKV en 2015. Estiman:

Our model estimated between 508 and 1,778 imported infections into Europe in 2016, of which we would expect between 116 and 355 symptomatic Zika infections; with the highest number of importations being into France, Portugal and Italy.

A día de hoy, 26 de mayo de 2016, el número de infecciones de que hemos encontrado datos son unos 600 casos sintomáticos, que no sabemos en qué países se han contagiado, pero los casos habidos son casi en el doble del máximo previsto con este modelo.

En la publicación de ECDC: Zika virus disease epidemic Sixth update, 20 May 2016 en el apartado
Situation in the EU/EEA and EU outermost regions and overseas countries and territories dicen:


As of 19 May 2016, no autochthonous vector-borne Zika virus transmission has been reported in the EU Member States of mainland Europe. Since January 2016 and as of 19 May, ECDC has recorded 607 imported cases of Zika infection in 18 EU/EEA countries. The number is not based on systematic reporting through surveillance systems and hence cannot be considered exhaustive. Two countries have reported the majority of the imported cases; France reported 317 cases of Zika virus, which corresponds to an average of 20 cases per week since February 2016, and Spain reported 121 cases since late January 2016 [45,46]. Thirty-four of the imported cases were among pregnant women.
