A Human West Nile Virus Infection in Saint Joseph County

October 7th Update: I noticed that, on the map of which you can access with the link below, Saint Joseph County did not have a human infection case anymore. This may mean that the person was successfully treated for the symptoms.

On September 13th, Saint Joseph County of Northern Indiana/Michiana joined the counties of Floyd, Porter, and Ripley because, in these counties, at least one person has been infected with the West Nile Virus, according to the Indiana State Department of Health's Arboviral Map.
Also, the newest counties with WNV infections in a very small amount of mosquitoes are Clay, Hancock, Pulaski, Putnam, and Wells. There are 70 out of 92 Indiana counties in which the West Nile Virus infected a small population of mosquitoes.
