Enago’s Partner Future Science Group Offers Free Access to Top Zika-Related Articles
To support the Zika research effort, Enago’s partner FSG has announced that they are offering free access to top Zika-related research articles.
In a bid to aid the ongoing effort to develop effective treatments, and ultimately a preventative vaccine, for Zika infection, Future Science Group is making a collection of relevant articles from the journals Future Microbiology and Future Virology freely available via their website.
The Zika virus is a mosquito-borne flavivirus, capable of infecting humans, and which has emerged in recent years as a serious threat to human health. While Zika infection generally causes no-to-mild symptoms in those it infects, it has been potentially linked with neurological conditions such as Guillain–Barré syndrome in adults, and microcephaly, severe brain malformations and other birth defects in instances where Zika virus is believed to have been transmitted from a mother to her unborn fetus. There are currently no specific treatments for Zika infection (beyond managing symptoms), and no preventative vaccine is yet available.
