B ecause the num ber o f mosquito pools testing positive in any area could lead to infection, Shelley W ight, M orrow C ounty Health Department Health E ducator/C om m unicable Disease Coordinator, recom m ends people and animals be protected against mosquito bites. Eighty percent of people infected with West Ni l e v i r u s e x h i b i t no symptoms. O f the remaining 20 percent, most have very m ild sym ptom s, such as fever, headaches and nausea lasting from three to six days. In a few cases, more severe sym ptom s occur, including convulsions or disorientation. The central nervous system also may be affected, resulting in a headache associated with fever, aseptic m eningitis or encephalitis. C onsult your health care provider if you have these symptoms. Health Care Providers may contact the Morrow County Heal t h D e p a rtm en t for information on West Nile virus testing services that the Oregon Public Health Lab offers.
