Krishna Armogan says he is one of the two people at the centre of the first cases of Zika virus infection in the province.
"I was hurting from head to toe," Armogan said, describing his symptoms as flu-like "but a lot worse."
Manitoba health officials confirmed Friday there have been two cases of the virus detected in Manitoba. Both individuals had recently travelled to an area affected by an outbreak, the provincial government said Friday.
Officials did not release any details about the patients or where they had been.
"These two cases are travel-related; they are not locally acquired," Dr. Elise Weiss, of Manitoba Public Health, told CBC News.
