Bolivia is spreading awareness on Zika virus prevention through a song.

The catchy tune, titled "La Cumbia Del Mosquito Zika," is part of an effort by Bolivia's Ministry of Health to educate people on how to prevent the dreaded virus from spreading, the Latin Times reported. See the music video below.

The track urges people to "eliminate" and "squish" that mosquito by disinfecting and cleaning their homes, as well as covering water surfaces or containers that can be breeding grounds for the Aedes aegypti mosquito, the carrier of the Zika virus. People are also warned to remove accumulated water from rain found in empty bottles, tires and other objects outside of homes.

Bolivia's Two-Year Plan to Combat Zika

Bolivia launched a two-year strategic plan in February to combat the Zika virus and other mosquito-borne diseases like dengue and chikungunya, according to a report from teleSUR.

"The national government approved the Supreme Decree N 2670 for use in areas where there is a risk transmission of Zika, dengue and chikungunya and the presence of Aedes aegypti," the Bolivian Health Ministry announced last month.

The country has only registered four Zika cases, the news outlet wrote. Three of the four Bolivians acquired the disease from Brazil, where the virus outbreak first originated. One pregnant Bolivian woman, however, got the virus locally, AFP reported (via Yahoo! News).

Health Minister Ariana Campero said Zika cases in Bolivia are under control, but people residing in tropical areas where the mosquito thrives should be on high alert.

"We cannot allow pregnant women where there is a breeding ground for mosquitos," she said at a press conference in February, as reported by teleSUR. Zika is being linked to microcephaly, a congenital condition where newborn babies have abnormally smaller heads and incomplete brain development.

Travel Alerts Issued

Bolivia is included in the travel alert issued by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or CDC. The list also includes Mexico, Haiti, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Venezuela and Trinidad and Tobago. Check out the complete travel notices from the CDC here.

Research conducted by scientists in Brazil found Zika could also be carried by a more common mosquito called Culex quinquefasciatus, the Guardian wrote. This species is 20 times more common in Brazil than the Aedes aegypti.
