1. • • A positive Zika virus nucleic acid amplification tests (NAAT) result from amniotic fluid might indicate fetal infection. This information would be useful for pregnant people and their healthcare providers to assist in determining clinical management (e.g., antepartum testing, scheduling serial ultrasounds, delivery planning).

   When is the best time to test for Zika virus during pregnancy?

   • For updated clinical management recommendations during pregnancy, refer to CDC's updated interim guidance. Insufficient data are available to define the optimal timing between Zika virus exposure and initial sonographic screening. Abnormalities have been detected anywhere from 2 to 29 weeks after symptom onset.

   Can a fetal MRI detect a Zika virus infection during pregnancy?

   • Limited data suggest that a constellation of ultrasound abnormalities (e.g., microcephaly, ventriculomegaly, or abnormalities of the corpus callosum) identified prenatally in the context of Zika virus exposure during pregnancy correlate with reported structural abnormalities in infants at birth. Fetal MRI is not a screening tool.

   Zika infection in pregnancy can increase the chance of stillbirth, preterm delivery (birth before week 37), the fetus being smaller than expected for the timing in pregnancy (small for gestational age) and having low birth weight (weighing less than 5 pounds, 8 ounces [2500 grams] at birth).

     Prenatal Zika infection has long-term immune consequences in children, even without microcephaly

     A Cleveland Clinic-led study published in eBioMedicine reveals that maternal Zika virus infections can reprogram fetal immune development, leading to long-term consequences in children’s immunity. These changes even occur in children born without the physical characteristics associated with congenital Zika syndrome — suggesting that the 95% of babies born of Zika-infected pregnancies who did not exhibit symptoms may have been affected by the virus with long-term immunological repercussion.
