According to the State of Connecticut Mosquito Management Program, eastern equine encephalitis or EEE virus was found in several mosquitoes trapped in Canterbury last week. The mosquitoes were collected from a trap at Quinebaug Camp Road, of which four mosquitoes tested positive for the virus. Dr.

根据康涅狄格州蚊子管理计划，上周在坎特伯雷捕获的几只蚊子中发现了东部马脑炎或EEE病毒。这些蚊子是从Quinebaug Camp Road的陷阱中收集的，其中四只蚊子的病毒检测呈阳性。博士。

Philip Armstrong, Chief Scientist at Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station, warned that the detection of the virus in July is concerning 'as conditions are suitable for further build-up and spread of the virus in the coming weeks and months'.The virus transmits to human through mosquitoes that feed on EEE-infected birds, causing symptoms such as fever, headache, vomiting, diarrhea, seizures, behavioral changes, and drowsiness.'We are also detecting the virus in mosquitoes that feed on mammals which increases the risk for human infection,' Armstrong added..

康涅狄格州农业实验站首席科学家菲利普·阿姆斯特朗（PhilipArmstrong）警告说，7月份检测到的病毒令人担忧，“因为条件适合在未来几周和几个月内进一步积聚和传播病毒”。该病毒通过蚊子传播给人类，蚊子以EEE感染的鸟类为食，引起发烧、头痛、呕吐、腹泻、癫痫发作、行为改变和嗜睡等症状阿姆斯特朗补充说：“我们还在以哺乳动物为食的蚊子中检测到这种病毒，这会增加人类感染的风险。”。。

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that humans rarely contract EEE virus. However, if they get infected, it could be fatal as there are no medicines or vaccines to treat or prevent the disease.'We will continue to closely monitor mosquitoes for virus amplification and encourage everyone to take simple measures such as wearing mosquito repellent and covering bare skin, especially during dusk and dawn when mosquitoes are most active,' Armstrong said.To prevent the mosquito-borne disease, people should avoid mosquito bites, use mosquito repellents, control mosquito population indoors, eliminate standing water, and stock water tanks with fish that eat mosquito larvae.

疾病控制和预防中心发现，人类很少感染EEE病毒。阿姆斯特朗说：“我们将继续密切监测蚊子的病毒扩增情况，并鼓励每个人采取简单的措施，例如佩戴驱蚊剂和覆盖裸露的皮肤，特别是在蚊子最活跃的黄昏和黎明期间。”。为了预防蚊虫传播的疾病，人们应该避免蚊虫叮咬，使用驱蚊剂，控制室内蚊子数量，消除积水，并在水箱中存放吃蚊子幼虫的鱼。
