On 1 October 2019, a locally-acquired Zika virus disease case was laboratory confirmed in Hyeres, Var department. Active case finding identified two additional locally-acquired cases living within go m, with symptom onset 8 days before the index case. Extensive patient interviews did not yield information supporting transmission through sexual contact or substances of human origin. Vector-borne transmission by local Aedes albopictus mosquitoes is the most likely mode of transmission. Here we describe the public health response.
