We had a report on our local news tonight that the West Nile virus is now in Kansas. A horse that died last week has tested positive for it. From what I hear any animal or bird that is bitten by a mosquto can get it but it only makes older or weak individuals sick. So far no people in Kansas have been diagnosed with it and no deaths. I'm not sure the horse died from it or if it just had it. They have said there is no cure for it. We have a river which runs through our town. I don't know what part of Kansas the horse was in but I do know that Oklahoma has had cases too. It's on the move.
