Experts say that we are living a historic moment in health. The alert for an outbreak and little knowledge of what complications the Zika virus can cause is comparable to currently living with HIV infection and AIDS.

First recorded in April 2015 in Brazil, the Zika virus infection was considered by the World Health Organization as a problem of public health worldwide. WHO estimates that about 3 to 4 million people could be infected in the Americas in 2016.

There is a race of scientific medical community behind accurate answers to understand the infection and combat the rumors related to Zika virus, especially on their relationship with other conditions such as microcephaly, Guillain-Barré syndrome, arthrogryposis among others. These rumors together with the fact that only 1 in 4 Brazilian checking the sources of health information on the Internet (survey by Bupa Health Pulse / Ipsos MORI in 2010) were the main motivators to launch this application that aims ensure that people receive reliable and credible information.
