The World Health Organization (WHO) advised women in areas with the Zika virus on Wednesday to protect themselves, especially during pregnancy, by covering up against mosquitoes and practicing safe sex through the use of condoms.

A day after WHO declared emergency over the "explosive" spread of the mosquito-borne Zika virus, the Centre today issued detailed guidelines for combating the disease, including a travel advisory that asks pregnant women to either defer or cancel their travel to the affected areas.

In view of two women who had to deliver in public vehicles due to traffic snarls on account of the Indo-African Summit, the Delhi Commission of Women has asked the Delhi Traffic Police to revise the rules for imposing curbs during VIP movement.
