1ST 2022 WEST NILE VIRUS CASE IN ELMSFORD. CONSIDER MOSQUITO REPELLENTS OUTSIDE IN EVENING HOURS

County Health Department Reminds Residents to Take Precautions Against Mosquitoes

WPCNR HEALTH ADVISORY.Westchester County has learned of its first human case of West Nile Virus this year, which was confirmed in an Elmsford resident with multiple underlying medical conditions, who is recovering at home.

Health Commissioner Sherlita Amler, MD, said: “This first case of West Nile Virus should remind us all to take precautions against mosquito bites by removing standing water from our property, especially after recent heavy rain and flooding, and using repellents when we spend time outdoors, especially from dusk to dawn, when mosquitoes are most active.” 

West Nile Virus infection most often causes a mild or moderate flu-like illness, but can be more serious particularly for people 60 and older, and those with other health complications. In 2021 and 2020, three people were diagnosed with West Nile Virus, and in 2019, one Westchester County resident had the virus.

The Westchester County Department of Health evaluated standing water around the resident’s home and nearby catch basins, and treated those with larvicide as needed.

Residents should inspect their property and remove any standing water to prevent mosquitoes from breeding. Residents who notice large areas of standing water on public property should report them to the Westchester County Department of Health at (914) 813-5000.

MASKS NO LONGER REQUIRED ON WESTCHESTER BEELINE BUSES EFFECTIVE THIS MORNING.

WPCNR WESTCHESTER COUNTY LEDGER. From the Westchester County Department of Communications. September 8, 2022:

Effective immediately, masks will no longer be required on Westchester County Bee-Line Buses, and Bee–Line ParaTransit.  Earlier today, New York Governor Kathy Hochul removed the mask requirement on public transportation.

Westchester County Executive George Latimer said: “Largely steady COVID rates are making COVID part of our new reality, but not an illness that should impact our day-to-day life as it did two years ago. As always, those who feel more comfortable wearing a mask should do so, but that is a choice not a mandate.”

Latimer is still encouraging those who are eligible to receive the fourth COVID-19 vaccine. New York State still requires masks at health facilities, including nursing homes.
