Zika virus is a Single-stranted RNA Arbovirus of the Flaviviirus genus and Flaviviridae family which is primarily transmitted by Aedes genus mosquito. In Uganda, it was initially discovered in monkeys in 1947 and then in human in 1952. After a few days, outbreaks were observed in a number of nations, including those in Asia, Africa, America, and the Pacific. And in 2016 the WHO declared microcephaly and other brain diseases as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). Mild Zika virus symptoms like fever, exhaustion, headaches, muscle soreness, and conjunctivitis are the most common, whereas severe infections can cause neurological abnormalities such Guillain-Barre syndrome and prenatal microcephaly. Although researchers put a lot of work into creating efficient defences against zika virus, there is still no specific antiviral medication that has been authorized for the treatment of zika virus infection. The primary method for preventing the breeding of mosquitoes is to take preventive measure against infection. Studies have specifically shown the potential of natural materials as ZIKV infection antivirals. As a result, this paper will examine current developments in the discovery of zika virus antiviral drugs using natural ingredients and also the immuneboosters as the preventive measure to strengthen the immune system and guard against zika virus infection.
