On July 26, 2018, NH DHHS issued a health alert with an arboviral illness update regarding a West Nile Virus (WNV) identified in a mosquito batch in Manchester, NH

2. Health care providers should consider mosquito-borne diseases, including WNV, Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE), and Jamestown Canyon Virus (JCV) in patients presenting with compatible clinical syndromes regardless of the presence or absence of positive mosquito or veterinary testing in their community.
