The President of Oswaldo Cruz Foundation Paulo Gadelha (L) and Wilson Savino (R), Director of the Oswaldo Cruz Institute attend a news conference in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, February 5, 2016. Zika has been identified in the saliva and urine of two patients infected by the virus, a leading Brazilian health institute said on Friday, adding that further studies are needed to determine if those fluids could transmit the infection. Scientists at the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation, a public health institute, said they used genetic testing to identify the virus in samples from two patients while they had symptoms and were known to have Zika, the mosquito-borne viral infection that has sparked a global health scare.
