					<description><![CDATA[Homegrown mosquitoes have infected more than a dozen people with Zika in a small area of Miami, and officials are recommending that pregnant women stay away from the neighborhood. The Zika infections are the first from mosquito bites on the U.S. mainland. Scientists don&#8217;t expect big outbreaks in U.S. states like those in hard-hit parts of Latin America and the Caribbean, including Puerto Rico. Containing community clusters will require good mosquito control and aggressive testing to track Zika, something Florida&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Saron Wyatt pointed to the secluded end of her small street in Houston&#8217;s impoverished Fifth Ward, where a mound of old tires keeps popping up. Always a trashy nuisance, it&#8217;s now a growing danger. Tires collect water and become prime breeding grounds for mosquitoes — especially the ones that spread Zika virus disease and other tropical mosquito-borne illnesses.
