Eastern Equine Encephalitis — Canada
The Windsor-Essex County Health Unit [WECHU] has detected the eastern equine encephalitis [EEE] virus in a mosquito pool in the community.
The EEE virus has been linked to a number of reported cases of illness and death in southwest Michigan, but there have been no human cases in Windsor-Essex.
“Despite the recent cooler temperature in the region, it might not be cold enough to eliminate the risk posed by mosquitoes. This is a good reminder for everyone to continue to protect themselves
