We were fortunate to have drought conditions in the northeast this year. Next year, especially if we have a mild winter, we may see this virus explode in multiple mosquito populations.

I recall during some research that Aedes aegypti has the previously been found in Conn.
I don't recall if it was an isolated discovery, or not, just that it has been found there.
It may have been transported by ship transport, so it may have just been an isolated incident.
The Aedes aegypti found in the Washington DC, three blocks from the White House,was in a birdbath and had been found there for three successive years
