现在已知怀孕期间感染寨卡病毒会导致先天性小头畸形和严重的脑缺陷。 2016 年，小头畸形的发病率似乎在 5 月份左右开始上升，在 7 月份达到顶峰，并在 12 月份下降。在哥伦比亚的两个大城市，小头畸形的发生率似乎增加了近 4 倍，同时该国报告的寨卡病毒流行。
Zika virus infection during pregnancy is now known to cause congenital microcephaly and severe brain defects. In 2016, rates of microcephaly appeared to start increasing around May, peaking in July, and declining through December. The occurrence of microcephaly appears to have increased nearly 4-fold in 2 large cities in Colombia, concurrently with the reported Zika virus epidemic in the country.
