Four cases of West Nile Virus Reported in KY Cases in three Kentucky counties, have been reported. There are no medications to treat, or vaccines to prevent West Nile virus infections in humans. People with milder illnesses typically recover on their own, although symptoms may last for several weeks. By Doug Hogan/Beth Fisher Frankfort, KY - The Kentucky Department for Public Health (DPH) is reporting four human cases of West Nile virus infection in Kentucky residents. To date, 42 states and Washington, D.C. have reported West Nile virus infections in people, birds, mosquitoes, or horses in 2017. Kentucky's four human cases include residents of Fayette (1), Hopkins (2), and Jefferson (1) counties. All cases have occurred in adults. In most instances, people infected with the West Nile virus either show no symptoms or relatively mild symptoms, including fever, headache, body aches, joint pains, vomiting, diarrhea, or rash. Less than 1 percent will develop a serious neurologic illness such as encephalitis or meningitis (inflammation of the brain or surrounding tissues). People over 50 years of age and those with certain medical conditions, such as cancer, diabetes, hypertension, kidney disease, and organ transplants, are at greater risk for serious illness.
