Missouri is on track to exceed the number of West Nile Virus cases from 2024, with three deaths reported so far, the highest number since 2022. The state epidemiologist attributes the increase to warmer months and sufficient rainfall, which prolongs the mosquito season. While the illness isn't rare, it can cause a brain infection with serious consequences, and there is no licensed vaccine or medication to treat it. Health officials recommend mosquito bite prevention as the best form of prevention.
