West Nile Virus Surges This Year | Dallas News

Published 1 week, 4 days ago
Description

West Nile virus is surging this year—with 48 cases across 12 states, including 32 in Arizona, the highest early-season total since 2004. Thirty-two of those cases have already led to severe neurological illness, up from the usual 10 by this time. While most people show no symptoms, about 1 in 5 get fever or illness, and less than 1% face life-altering complications. The CDC urges everyone to protect themselves: use EPA-approved repellent, wear long sleeves, and avoid outdoor exposure at dawn and dusk—especially as holidays and gatherings loom.
