A new outbreak of Zika virus is quite possible, warn researchers, with a single mutation potentially enough to trigger an explosive spread.
The disease caused a global medical emergency in 2016, with thousands of babies born brain-damaged after their mums became infected while pregnant.
US scientists say the world should be on the lookout for new mutations.
Lab work, described in the journal Cell Reports, suggests the virus could easily shift, creating new variants.
Recent infection studies suggest those variants may prove effective at transmitting the virus, even in countries which have built up immunity from previous outbreaks of Zika, say the team from the La Jolla Institute for Immunology.
Experts said the findings, although theoretical, were interesting - and a reminder that viruses other than Covid could pose a threat.

Stop and reverse all immigration
The sky is falling once again. Crisis after crisis is manufactured to keep the proles in constant fear.
Ah, today’s daily mandatory medical fear porn.
The media is floundering, though. I’ve still not seen the daily mandatory climate fear porn. But, the afternoon is young....
It’s like Christmas Eve the doc fauci.
It’s like Christmas Eve FOR doc fauci.
It’s apparently a very mild disease itself, but causes problems for unborn babies.
So Fauci wouldn’t exactly have the field day with it he’s had with Covid.
He’d love all the abortions this would ensure to happen. He’d be in seventh heaven.
So THIS is gonna the mid-term’s virus, huh.
Does it ever end?
We shall see. I hope not, because it’s a birth defect with no cure.
Gee, what could possibly have weakened women’s immune systems?
If the oligarchy can get the sheeple to keep taking the ‘booster clot shots’ their immune systems will be so weak that a common cold or flu will kill millions. By design
Making covid Zika again. 😆
