Dallas County Educates About Zika with Door Hangers

Health officials are taking their fight against the Zika virus to residents' front doors in Dallas County.

Dallas County Health and Human Services is distributing door hangers in several neighborhoods.

The hangers provide information about how the virus is spread, Zika hot zones, treatment and prevention.

The virus may be linked to severe birth defects, and is transmitted to people primarily through the bite of an infected Aedes species mosquito, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The door hangars will be available in English and Spanish.
