zika seems to only be transmitted through sexual contact to she should be safe. here's what the cdc has to say about the danger to non pregnant adults: zika virus disease (zika) is a disease caused by the zika virus which is spread to people primarily through the bite of an infected aedes species mosquito. the most common symptoms of zika are fever rash joint pain and conjunctivitis (red eyes). the illness is usually mild with symptoms lasting for several days to a week after being bitten by an infected mosquito. people usually don’t get sick enough to go to the hospital and they very rarely die of zika. for this reason many people might not realize they have been infected. however zika virus infection during pregnancy can cause a serious birth defect called microcephaly as well as other severe fetal brain defects. once a person has been infected he or she is likely to be protected from future infections. <link>
