First Probable West Nile Case in Northern BC Travel Related
A Robson Valley resident is the Norths first probable West Nile Virus case detected on initial screening. Officials say the infection most likely occurred while traveling in Alberta this summer. No local birds or mosquitoes show positive results and further tests over two weeks will confirm causation. Four BC residents now have travel-related probable infections. Public health staff emphasize low overall risk while urging mosquito precautions and surveillance.
