Texas moves slowly to combat growing threat of Zika virus

Attempts to provide poor, pregnant women in Texas with mosquito repellent to avoid possible Zika infections are off to a slow start.Two weeks after the state announced that mosquito repellent would be given out to women and girls on Medicaid, only 1,200 cans have been distributed, equivalent to less than 1% of the roughly 134,000 pregnant women eligible for the product.Only 25 cans of mosquito repellent have been given out to the roughly 92,000 women who qualify for family planning services through the state.
