On the temporal association of outbreaks of Zika virus infection, newborn microcephaly, and Guillain-Barré syndrome %K %X During the last couple of years Zika virus (ZIKV) infection has been considered an international public health emergency, due to possible but yet uncertain links with newborn microcephaly and Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). Concerns about these links originated from case reports and surveillance data suggesting an outbreak of ZIKV in Brazil was followed by outbreaks of GBS and microcephaly (1,2). A fundamental component of the public health response has been the implementation of a system for surveillance of ZIKV disease and its complications (3). %U https://jphe.amegroups.org/article/view/4037 %V 1 %P %@ 2520-0054
