As a result of the Zika virus outbreak, Jaques Wagner, Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff's chief of staff, warned pregnant women to avoid traveling to Brazil for the 2016 Summer Olympics.
"The risk, which I would say is serious, is for pregnant women," Wagner said, per the Agence France-Presse (via Yahoo News). "It is clearly not advisable for you (to travel to Rio de Janeiro for the Games in August) because you don't want to take that risk."
