PCPH News and Health Alerts

West Nile Virus in Wyoming 2023





·         There has been a large increase in detection of WNV in mosquitoes, animals, and humans in 2023 throughout the state.

·         In Platte County, there have been human cases of WNV reported.

·         Preventing mosquito bites is key to preventing infection with WNV.

o   Eliminate standing water around your home by draining and removing sites where mosquitoes can breed: tires, buckets, other water-holding objects.

o   Avoid outdoor activities at dawn and dusk, when the mosquitoes that carry WNV are most active.

o   Wear insect repellent such as DEET, Picaridin, oil of lemon eucalyptus, and others.

o   Wear loose-fitting, long-sleeved shirts and pants when outdoors. Treat outdoor clothing and gear with permethrin.

o   Use screens on windows and doors to prevent mosquitoes from entering your home.

o   Use air conditioning, if available.

·         Common symptoms of WNV include headache, high fever, muscle pain, weakness, and fatigue.

·         Persons 50 years of age and older are more likely to experience significant clinical disease from WNV.
