The first death from West Nile virus in Colorado for the 2023 season has been reported in a 53-year-old man from Weld County who died after complications from the disease.
WELD COUNTY, Colo. –
“The number of West Nile virus-infected mosquitoes we've detected this season is the highest we've seen in years,” said CDPHE’s state epidemiologist Dr. Rachel Herlihy. “This is especially concerning now that August is here and September is just around the corner, as this is usually when human cases peak in Colorado.”
While most people infected with West Nile virus don’t have symptoms, around 1% of those infected can develop a serious, sometimes fatal, neuroinvasive disease, for which there is no cure. There are also no medications to treat, or vaccines to prevent, a West Nile virus infection.
