West Nile Virus!

[ninny308]

I live only 20 miles from the nations's (America) hotspot for west nile. Along the same river downstream nonetheless! Mosquitoes lay eggs on water!!! I'm frightened because I've not been protevted from it, and I take long bike riodes down by the river where there are swarms of biting mosquitoes!! I've heard that it can kill you in most cases! Help! I already wear reppelant, but I've been bitten plenty of times.

Find somewhere else to bike, a SAFER place. It's much better to be safe than sorry.

Sure, west nile sucks and can kill you, but don't let fear rule your life. ;]

Of course, take precaution but do a rist analysis. How many people actualy DO get west nile? There are probably more people who die from just bike related incidents than there are of people who get west nile.

Don't worry, if it's really bad don't go. Make sure to put bug lotion/spray on and you're set.

Nothing to worry over. :]

Actually, here it's more like a plauge than a mere disease. I will try to find a safer place to bike, but it it just so pretty by the river!

West nile is worse in Canada, you shouldn't be afraid.

Find another place to bike, put tons of bug repelant on, and stay away from the hotspots for mosquitos! I do love the river, though.

Don't bike there anymore.

Simple as that.
