BRAZIL - Will be ready for Olympic Games despite Zika, says minister



The World Health Organization (WHO) chief says the agency is increasingly concerned about the mosquito-borne virus Zika. Margaret Chan noted that although it's been around for decades, it's only recently that Zika has been proven to cause severe birth defects. 
"The more we learn about Zika, the more we get worried about it. I must say that once again. The risk profile of Zika has changed over the years," said Chan.
