West Nile Virus

This disease has run rampant throughout texas and i think the rest of the US, and i almost got it. It has been pretty prevalent in my area which is why i thank God i am alive. I was outside for a long time a couple weeks ago and got approx. 50-60 mosquito bites. The incubation period is over, and i don't have west nile!! It was pretty much a 1 in 50 chance that i didn't get it and i am so thankful. Well, just thought i'd share that with ya.

Re: West Nile Virus

I think I read somewhere that the youngest person to die from west nile in 2003 was 62 years old. It's pretty much only fatal if you are really old. I still wouldn't want to get west nile but I think the media is blowing things a little out of proportion. If you were to get it I think it would be like having mono or something which would still stuck (but not kill you.) I think SARS is more dangerous.

Re: West Nile Virus

but even SARS is kind of a crap disease.

We don't have any quality diseases left running a muck like back in the day. Ebola, the plague, now those were diseases!

the media is good at scaring people to death.

I'm just immune to it due to the 85 miles a week I run now.

Re: West Nile Virus

My art professior for Landscape painting was ranting about West Nile and how we should paint about death and gloom because we were painting near a river and he was all paranoid about it.
