MARCO Grand Rounds for August 26, 2012

From Warren KD4GUA:
 
This Sunday we will discuss the disease of the week "WEST NILE VIRUS."  Time to tip over your swimming pools as they could be a  breeding site for these disease spreading mosquitoes.
     Symptoms: none in 110 to one case of encephalitis; mild fever in 30 cases to one case of encephalitis.  The mosquitoes carry the disease from birds and other humans to YOU.  No vaccine for humans yet so best to avoid endemic areas.
    Tune in with your fly-swatter--should be fun.
