West Nile Virus

  West Nile virus is a disease spread by mosquito. Mosquitoes carry the highest amounts of virus in the early fall, which is why the rate of the disease increases in late August to early September. The risk of disease decreases as the weather becomes colder and mosquitoes die off.
 
 Infection with West Nile Virus does not always lead to signs of illness in people or animals. Horses appear to be a species that is susceptible to infection with the virus. In horses that do become clinically ill, the virus infects the central nervous system and may cause symptoms of encephalitis. Clinical signs of encephalitis in horses may include a general loss of appetite and depression, in addition to any combination of the following signs:
 
 
 
  • Fever
  • Weakness of hind limbs
  • paralysis of hind limbs
  • Impaired vision
  • Weakness
  • Head pressing
  • Aimless wandering
  • Convulsions (seizures)
  •  Inability to swallow
  • Walking in circles
  • Hyperexcitabilit
  • Coma
