Answer:
This should be 6 months
Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the virus has been found in the semen longer than other body fluids.it has been found in infected semen for 180 days after healing.
In infected pregnant women,this can be transmitted to the fetus,causing microcephaly in the unborn child,Protection against mosquito bites is best way of prevention.
