In central California the Hooper foundation will spend 150000 dollars of state funds on laboratory and demonstration work for encephalitis research. The disease attacks brains, spreading from mosquitoes and affecting both horses and humans, with 47 California deaths last year. Researchers compare progress to malaria's state 25 years ago and seek vaccines for horses while humans remain unprotected.
