PSA: They're already advising that pregnant women don't attend, but it may also be a good idea not to attend if you're a man trying for a baby. The virus can be sexually transmitted and, even though infection doesn't last too long, we don't know enough about how/when it affects the fetus exactly.

In fact, since the virus is often asymptomatic, anyone attending should probably refrain from unprotected sex for two weeks after they return, and don't donate blood for a few weeks.
