Guillain-Barre Syndrome and Healthcare Needs during Zika Virus Transmission, Puerto Rico, 2016.

ABSTRACT: To assist with public health preparedness activities, we estimated the number of expected cases of Zika virus in Puerto Rico and associated healthcare needs. Estimated annual incidence is 3.2-5.1 times the baseline, and long-term care needs are predicted to be 3-5 times greater than in years with no Zika virus.
