West Nile Virus Spreads in Virginia Beach | Virginia Beach News
Description
Virginia Beach is sounding the alarm as mosquito tests confirm West Nile Virus in ten neighborhoods — including Kempsville and Pembroke. While exact numbers are withheld, the threat is real: mosquitoes pick up the virus from infected birds and pass it to humans via bites. The city’s responding with water treatment crews and urging residents to eliminate standing water on their property — think buckets, tires, and gutters. Personal protection is key too: wear long sleeves during dawn and dusk, and use repellent. This is a community effort — your simple steps could help stop the spread and keep everyone safe.
