The US has 25,000 cases of microcephaly a year. Yet Brazil, which has 67% if the US population, only has 150? Not a freaking chance


Did you miss the numbers for last year (2015)? Something like 4000 have been born with the condition since October.

On 27 January, it said that of 4,180 suspected cases of microcephaly recorded since October, it has so far confirmed 270 and rejected 462 as false diagnoses.
It seems that there is cause for concern, but the extent of it is extreme.
