Zika virus NOT FOUND in microcephaly cases

Associated Press (quoted by Jon Rappoport): "Brazilian officials said the babies with the defect [microcephaly] and their mothers are being tested to see if they had been infected. Six of the 270 confirmed microcephaly cases were found to have the [Zika] virus." https://jonrappoport.wordpress.com/2016/02/02/zika-hoax-five-things-that-will-happen-next/
 
That's infection rate is 2% of microcephaly cases -- strong evidence that Zikavirus is unrelated to microcephaly.
 
Yet medical "journalists" are going wild over the profitable word "Zikavirus". Journalism exploded with the word "Zikavirus" on January 15, 2016. They should be more concerned with pesticides mishandling in Brazil, which have demonstrated potential to cause microcephaly.
