Martin has been looking into what it is and | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
Zika is a disease carried by mosquitoes. | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
When a mosquito bites people, it spreads the disease | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
The types of mosquitoes that carry the disease live in tropical | :00:48. | :00:53. | |
countries, so it is not likely to affect the UK. | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
When people do catch the virus, usually it is very mild, | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
so mild they don't even know they were infected afterward. | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
They feel a bit unwell, like they've got | :01:03. | :01:04. | |
But it's more serious if a woman is having a baby. | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
Scientists say they think it may affect how a baby grows | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
Doctors around the world are now coming up | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
While scientists are making new medicines | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
and vaccines to stop Zika virus, everyone is going to be working | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
to make sure people don't get bit by mosquitoes. | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
They're going to try and get rid of the mosquitoes, | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
and that will actually stop a lot of different diseases. | :01:29. | :01:35. | |

Actually, we do get hit by small particles everyday, | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
and if ever we are in any danger, then the ISS will simply move out | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
