There is no longer active Zika transmission in South Florida because there have been no new cases of the virus reported in Miami-Dade County for at least 45 days, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in a release on Friday.

Florida was the first state to report local transmission of the virus in July. In the late summer and early fall, three neighborhoods in Miami were considered "red" Zika zones by the CDC, meaning mosquitoes in these areas were carrying the virus, which presented a significant risk to pregnant women. There are 184 cases of locally acquired Zika in Florida.

Now, in December 2016, there are no red areas in Florida, but all of Miami-Dade county still has the "yellow" Zika zone designation. That means there's still a risk of developing Zika from a local mosquito, but there is not enough evidence to indicate the risk is as high as it is in red areas.

The CDC says pregnant and trying-to-conceive women should consider postponing travel to places classified as yellow, including all of Miami-Dade County.

The CDC also recommends:

Live outside Florida? You should still protect yourself from mosquito bites. It will protect your health and your baby's.

Apply mosquito repellent every day whenever you go outside. DEET- and picaridin-based mosquito repellents are safe to use during pregnancy.

Wear long sleeves, pants and socks that are permethrin-treated. You can buy them with permethrin or treat them yourself.

As much as possible, stay inside during peak mosquito hours, between sunrise and sunset. Aedes mosquitos, which pass Zika, are still present at night (though they're less active) so still wear mosquito repellent if you go out after dark.

Sleep in screened-in rooms or rooms with closed windows and air-conditioning.

Regardless of where you live, it's important to stay informed of developments, so check in regularly at CDC.gov and with your local health department to stay up-to-date on Zika in your area.
