There are increasing cases of Zika in the U.S. among people who have travelled to a Zika-infected area and in their sexual partners. Additionally, cases of transmission by mosquito bites, called "local transmission," have been confirmed in Florida and as of November 28, 2016, in Cameron County, Texas. It is expected that cases transmitted in both of these manners will continue to increase in the U.S.
