7MONITORING AND EVALUATING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE GUIDELINE

The recommendations should be monitored at the health-service level as part of broader efforts to monitor and improve the quality of health care for children. Continuous screening of both mothers and infants in areas of Zika virus transmission should help to identify potential harm or adverse events. It is important to include data disaggregated by socioeconomic variables to understand which groups are more affected or vulnerable to the outbreak or may need more support for breastfeeding or infant feeding.
