Jamestown Canyon Virus Back in Vermont

Another human case of Jamestown Canyon virus has been confirmed in Charlotte, Vermont — marking the second year in a row this mosquito-borne illness has surfaced here. Last year was the first time it appeared, and now it’s back, with health officials urging vigilance while keeping details under wraps. While most people won’t get sick, some may experience flu-like symptoms or worse — including fever, fatigue, and headaches. Mosquitoes in Rutland and Marshfield tested positive last year, reminding us these tiny pests can carry serious threats. With no vaccine or specific treatment available, prevention remains key: wear long sleeves and pants outdoors, especially at dawn and dusk, and use bug spray to stay protected.
