Answer: No specific antiviral treatment for the Zika virus exists. Treatment is aimed at relieving symptoms with rest, fluids and medications — such as acetaminophen (Tylenol, others) — to relieve joint pain and fever.

Explanation: No vaccine exists to prevent the Zika virus. But several vaccines are currently in clinical trials.
