Episode Details

West Nile Virus is back in El Paso, with two more serious cases confirmed — both elderly individuals with preexisting conditions — bringing the annual total to four. This underscores the virus’s deadly potential for vulnerable populations, even as most people remain unaffected. Public Health urges everyone to follow the “Four Ds”: use DEET-based repellent, wear long sleeves and pants outdoors, avoid dawn and dusk, and eliminate standing water. Check screens, report mosquito breeding spots by calling 3-1-1, and stay safe — especially as temperatures rise. More tips available on the El Paso Public Health website.
