Protecting Against the Zika Virus in Buena Park, Wisconsin & Northern Illinois

What's the trendy new disease being touted by the media? It's the Zika virus ... and it's transmitted by mosquitoes.

 

Uh oh. Summer is coming. Mosquitoes, too.

Should You Be Worried About The Zika Virus in Buena Park?

Well, no. The mosquitoes that will soon be buzzing Buena Park, don't carry the Zika virus. In fact, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, not a single person has gotten the virus from a mosquito in the contiguous U.S.

 

Foreign countries are different. Zika virus is a danger if you travel to Mexico, the Caribbean and some South American countries. Tropical mosquitoes in these areas carry the virus. More than 350 "travel-related" Zika cases have been reported in the United States, where people returned from a foreign country after being infected.

 

The glaring peril of Zika virus is its connection to severe birth defects, including brain damage. Pregnant women, or those planning to become pregnant, should be especially wary about foreign travel.

 

Otherwise, Zika virus disease isn't fatal. It does have some uncomfortable symptoms – fever, rash and joint pain. So, if Zika comes up in conversation this summer, rest easy. Like malaria and dengue fever, it's transmitted by tropical mosquitoes that don't frequent Buena Park, southeastern Wisconsin or northern Illinois.

Not Out of the Woods Entirely

Just like mosquitoes love woods, though, we aren't out of the woods regarding mosquito-transmitted illness. West Nile virus, which appeared in the U.S. about 15 years ago, is a threat. In the Buena Park area, Illinois had 72 cases reported in 2015. Wisconsin had nine.

 

Buena Park local mosquitoes can transmit West Nile virus. Its danger to people varies. In the vast majority of cases, an infected person has no symptoms.

 

About 1 in 5 infected people displays fever and other symptoms: headache, body pain, vomiting and rash. Most recover in full.

 

Yet, a sliver of those infected develop serious neurologic illness, and can even die. People over sixty are at highest risk. With Buena Park summer activities looming – pool parties, family gatherings, the Fourth of July and others – it's worth considering how to guard yourself and others from the West Nile virus.

 

Protecting against mosquitoes, period, reduces the chance of running into one (or more) harboring West Nile. A mosquito repellent treatment by The Mosquito Guy keeps mosquitoes away for 30 days. We travel to Buena Park and throughout southeastern Wisconsin and northern Illinois.
