Last updated on Friday, August 5, 2016

(INDIANAPOLIS) - Indiana’s Department of Health officials say they under-reported the number of Zika Virus cases in the state.

Health officials had said there were only 15 cases, all of them people who came back into the state with the virus.

Now the department says as many as 23 people were sick.

Some of those people were first infected last year.
