Residents Urged to Protect Themselves from Mosquito Bites

08/15/2024 11:40 AM

Oakland County Health Division is urging residents to protect themselves from mosquito bites after three birds and the county’s first mosquito pool of 2024 have tested positive for West Nile virus (WNV). No confirmed human cases of WNV have occurred in the county this year.

“These test results mean that West Nile Virus is present in Oakland County and the best way to prevent getting diseases spread by mosquitoes is to avoid being bitten,” said Leigh-Anne Stafford, Oakland County’s director of Health & Human Services. “As we enjoy outdoor events in summer and fall, it’s important to protect ourselves against mosquito bites.”
