Abstract
This brief provides key insights for implementers of social and behavior change (SBC) activities for Zika prevention in El Salvador. The insights are based on data from a representative sample of people living in select USAID Zika program implementation communities and support an evidence-based approach for programming to increase preventative behaviors for Zika and other Aedes aegypti-transmitted viruses. The data indicate a need to narrow existing knowledge gaps related to the Zika virus, particularly its health consequences and effective preventive practices, and communicate more specifically about preventative behaviors to enable effective action.
