HARRISBURG — Two female Pennsylvania residents tested positive for the Zika virus, however they are mild cases and the public is not as risk, health authorities said Tuesday.

The two had recently traveled outside the U.S. to places affected by the ongoing outbreak of the mosquito-borne virus, said the Pennsylvania Department of Health.

Authorities said the two had fevers and a rash.

Citing privacy concerns, officials provided no other details about the patients, including whether they were pregnant or where they live.

Health Secretary Karen Murphy told reporters her agency was looking ahead to warmer weather, when mosquitoes will be active. The virus is primarily spread through bites from a specific mosquito.

Many who are infected with the Zika virus do not get sick.
