“…According to the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines, ZIKV testing is currently recommended for every symptomatic pregnant women with possible ZIKV exposure, for asymptomatic pregnant women with ongoing possible ZIKV exposure and for ZIKV‐exposed pregnant women whose fetus presents with prenatal US findings consistent with congenital ZIKV infection. ZIKV testing may also be considered for asymptomatic pregnant women with recent possible but not ongoing exposure to ZIKV (ie, travelers) (https://www.cdc.gov/pregnancy/zika/testing-follow-up/documents/testing-algorithm-asymptomatic.pdf). However, since birth defects were described in asymptomatic ZIKV‐infected pregnant women returning from endemic areas, ZIKV testing should be offered to all pregnant women possibly exposed to ZIKV.…”

What is already known about the topic? The Zika virus (ZIKV) emergence and its consequences during pregnancy led to an increasing number of data about the maternal and fetal consequences of ZIKV infections. What does this study add? This review evaluates risks of maternal ZIKV infection, maternal‐fetal transmission, congenital Zika syndrome (CZS), other adverse perinatal outcomes, and long‐term sequelae among pregnancies exposed to ZIKV. This review also provides contemporary criteria and guidelines for the follow‐up of exposed fetuses, based on prenatal and postnatal features of CZS.

“…As infection rates continue to decline, there is a very low pre-test probability when testing asymptomatic individuals, which limits the value of testing. As a result, testing guidelines do not routinely recommend testing of asymptomatic pregnant women with no ongoing risk (i.e., travellers) (31). Several testing procedures for case identification are available; however, antibody cross reactivity between ZIKV and related viruses such as dengue can complicate diagnosis when using serological platforms.…”

“…CHIKV is a mosquito-borne alphavirus first isolated in Tanzania in 1952. 14 29 Testing may also be considered in asymptomatic potentially exposed pregnant women after considering risk of infection, patient preferences, and clinical judgment. 29 Nonpregnant individuals and couples traveling to Zika-affected areas should also be counseled on measures to prevent sexual transmission and congenital infection.…”
