Thank you so much for the info. I didn’t realize it occurred in Panama. Any time I heard of it, it was always a story from Africa. Thanks.

A number of years ago, a fellow I worked with, very fit, always working out, in excellent shape, got West Nile virus from a mosquito bite. He was off work for months, and almost died from it. Luckily, he eventually recovered. Who would have thought that a disease with such a name, could occur in Alberta?

I’d never heard of it wither outside of Africa, but the woman missionary who lived in Panama apparently got it from working in Panama.
