Fight the Bite - Positive West Nile Virus Equine Test Result Brings Reminder For People to Take Precautions
Submitted by Bill Eekhof
With the first sign of West Nile virus being detected in the area this summer, local residents are being asked to cover up and clean up to avoid mosquitoes. The Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit reports that a horse in the City of Kawartha Lakes has tested positive for West Nile virus. The finding was confirmed in tests taken by a local veterinarian and then reported to the Health Unit this week. The horse was treated with antibiotics and is recovering.
