West Nile Virus and Dallas

: The insects multiplied during an unusually muggy May, when temperatures hit the 90s and then stayed there, according to Hamilton Spectator. On June 20, Dallas recorded the season first case of West Nile virus. When the cold failed to show up, the spring mosquitoes arrived in droves, carrying disease. By late August, there were nearly 400. The 2012 epidemic alarmed health officials and triggered multiple inquiries into the possible causes. Nineteen people would die in the greater Dallas area in the worst West Nile outbreak in U.S. history. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
