“A person, bitten by an infected mosquito, might become
infected and develop West Nile fever or a more severe illness, such as brain

“Many people who are bitten by an infected mosquito won't
get sick—many others aren't as lucky. Since 1999, more than 30,000 people in

Nile encephalitis,” “West Nile meningitis” or “West Nile meningoencephalitis.”
