Oswego County Reminds Residents to Guard against Mosquito Bites
“Our surveillance team is in high gear, monitoring mosquito activity in the area,” said Oswego County Public Health Director Jiancheng Huang. “These viral infections can cause serious illness such as severe headache, high fever, disorientation, seizures, brain swelling or, in some cases, death.” Huang explained that the best defense people have from EEE or West Nile is to use personal protection measures to guard against mosquito bites.
