West Nile Virus
West Nile Virus (WNV) was first seen in the U.S. in 1999, in the New York City area of Queens. Birds are the source of infection. Infected mosquitoes can transmit the virus to horses, other animals, and in rare cases, people. Most WNV infections do not cause any symptoms. Some people may experience mild symptoms such as fever, headache, and body aches. A small percentage of people may develop serious disease that will result in convulsions, paralysis, coma, and sometimes death.
