In this article from womansworld.com, Dr Brynna Connor helps us understand how West Nile Virus is contracted, what it looks like, and who is most at risk.

How do people contract West Nile Virus, and what are its symptoms?

West Nile Virus is spread to humans through mosquitoes. While many who contract the virus are asymptomatic, others can experience severe flu-like symptoms. Since there is no vaccine or cure for the virus, it is treated by managing these symptoms.

How can I prevent contracting West Nile Virus?

The best method of prevention is to limit exposure to mosquitoes. This can be done through DEET repellent, protective clothing, and screens installed on doors and windows. You may also prevent further mosquito breeding by emptying any sources of stagnant water near your home.
