    Zika is a disease that mosquitos carry. If you are bitten by a mosquito carrying it you could die or end up paralyzed for the rest of you life. The best way to avoid it it to make sure you always put mosquito spray on before you go outside and wear long sleeves and pants if you know mosquitoes are out.
