The family of a man battling West Nile Virus (WNV) is sharing his story as case numbers rise in Illinois.
Most people infected with WNV are asymptomatic. About one in five develop a fever, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. One in 150 develop a serious, sometimes fatal illness.
"It would probably be less than 1%. Those people typically have neurologic symptoms where they start having problems with neurologic function. For instance, they get severe weakness or become confused." "When we see a lot of West Nile Virus tends to be when we have hot, dry conditions," said Irwin."That seems to be the perfect storm for it. In 2018, we had a hot dry period. In 2012, which was the worst year in my memory, we were in drought conditions for most of the season."
