Episode Details

West Nile virus is back in Idaho—with the first serious human case this season hitting a Canyon County resident over 65, now recovering at home after developing meningitis. While most people show no symptoms or just mild flu-like illness, the virus can cause severe brain and spinal cord damage in older adults and immunocompromised individuals. Experts urge everyone to protect themselves: use bug spray, wear long sleeves, eliminate standing water, and avoid mosquito bites—since there’s no vaccine or cure. Stay alert, stay safe.
