	Replying to @aricamillaa We do not know what the current level of risk of Zika is in either country, and there may be delays in detecting and reporting. CDC considers any country that has ever had Zika cases to have potential risk, but we cannot say how high or low that risk is.

	Replying to @aricamillaa Hi @aricamillaa, thanks for your question. Zika has been reported in Barbados & Bahamas in the past and there may be ongoing transmission of Zika in Barbados & the Bahamas currently, but there is no current outbreak of Zika in either the Bahamas or Barbados.

	Replying to @DrLeahR Maternal antibodies transferred through the placenta give babies some protection from birth through the first months of life. The first dose of MMR vaccine is routinely recommended at age 12-15 months; at that time, the baby’s immune system can work to build its own immunity.
