Florida declares new Miami neighbourhood as Zika zone


​Florida health officials have identified another Miami neighbourhood where mosquitoes have spread the Zika virus to people. Rick Scott's office announced Thursday that five people have been infected with Zika in a 1-square-mile area of the city just north of the Little Haiti neighbourhood. Scott's office says that confirms federal criteria for identifying a new zone of transmission. A large portion of Miami Beach remains an active Zika infection zone. Health officials said last month that another transmission zone in Miami's Wynwood district had been cleared.
