Mosquito control is essential to limit the spread of Eastern equine encephalitis virus, potentially fatal.

His acronym is properly EEE. Because "eeeee", Eequine encephalitis back (EEE) is something you do not want to get.
According to a recent announcement from the Michigan Department of Health and Social Services (MDHHS), a resident of Allegan County, Michigan, developed an EEE and was hospitalized late August with neurological problems. EEE is caused by the EEE virus, the Eastern Equine Encephalitis Virus, which is an alphavirus. Some people want to be an alpha, but no one should want this alphavirus.
In addition, according to Fiza Pirani's report for the Atlanta Journal Consitution, the DeKalb County Health Department in Georgia announced last week that a mosquito had tested positive at the VEEE.
Yes, the VEEE is another virus that can be transported by "skeeters". They are not considered the most deadly animal in the world for nothing. Culiseta melanura is the main mosquito carrying the VEEE. Currently however Cs. melanura tend to focus on birds. However, other mosquitoes such as Aedes, Coquillettidia, and Culex the species can then feed on infected birds and then sting mammals. And you are a mammal.
This is an illustration of a Culiseta melanura mosquito. Common characteristics of Culiseta melanura includes a long, curved trunk, a dark-scaled abdomen and dark scales slightly enlarged on the outer wing. This mosquito is a vector of eastern equine encephalitis virus in bird populations. (Photo by Smith Collection / Gado / Getty Images).
What's another mammal that can get from the EEA? A horse, of course. That is why it is called "equine" virus and disease. Horses can die from EEE. But do not worry about getting EEE from a horse, because once the horse is infected, it is unlikely that the horse will transmit the virus to others because their blood levels are usually too low.
Once you have been bitten by a mosquito with the VEEE, it takes about 4 to 10 days for you to get sick. You can never develop symptoms. If you develop symptoms, one possibility is a systemic disease. You may have fever, chills, joint pain, muscle aches and general weakness for 1 to 2 weeks. This is not EEE and does not affect your brain. Why you can feel like a poop for a little while, you will completely recover.
When the EEEV affects the central nervous system, the EEE can result, 4 to 5% of all infections. Encephalitis means inflammation of the brain. Remember that "enceph-" means brain and "anite" means inflamed. For example, if you want to say "I have a very good brain", you can say a word and say "I am encephalotherapic".
When your brain is inflamed, it can start to malfunction. In addition to fever and diarrhea due to infection, you may have headaches, become irritable and restless, doze, lose appetite, vomit, have convulsions or fall into a coma. Your chances of death are around 33%, which is not a good rating. This can happen quickly, 2 days after the onset of symptoms but may take longer. Even if you recover, you may end up with permanent damage such as severe intellectual impairment, personality disorders, seizures, paralysis or other nervous system problems. These permanent problems can be so severe that they can eventually lead to death in a few years.
Here is the experience of a person with the EEE:
Everything that looks like a corkscrew in your body is not good.
Here are other good news. There is no vaccine to prevent infection with EVSE unless you are a horse, of course. There is also no specific treatment for EEE in humans. The only thing you can do is try supportive care and manage the symptoms.

Fortunately, the EEA is quite rare. As indicated by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), each year, on average, 7 cases of EEE have been reported in humans. Most of these cases occurred in Florida, Massachusetts, New York, and North Carolina, with transmission occurring near freshwater hardwood swamps.
The steps you can take to avoid EVSE are the same as what you need to do to prevent other mosquito-borne diseases. Use an insect repellent approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Wear long sleeves and long pants if you are exposed to mosquitoes. No gardening or fishing in the marsh in your thong. Get rid of stagnant, stagnant water around you. Mosquitoes can be cheap dates. Some do not need a water plug to reproduce. Wear light colored clothing so you can see the skeins. Advocate and support better control of mosquitoes. And do not party with mosquitoes.
As I have already said, mosquitoes bite and suck. The VEEE is not common, but add it to the long list of reasons why better control of mosquitoes is so important.
