A Potentially DEADLY Mosquito Borne Virus Has Reached Adelaide
Authorities are on high alert after a potentially fatal virus was found in mosquitoes for the first time*. Murray Valley encephalitis can be deadly. Unlike Japanese encephalitis, there is no vaccine.
Victims show no symptoms. The current advice is to avoid getting bitten.
Give them chance though - how long before the advice will be to lock down, wear a hazmat suit, socially distance 3 miles apart and only eat whilst standing on one leg?
Where did this come from then? Is it real threat? Are we going to 'take notice' of this one as our mate the Operating System Salesman told us? Hasn't he just been on a visit to Australia? If so, how convenient/coincidental!!
There is no vaccine or treatment for it. Yet. It is a brand new virus so give them a chance, say about a week....

"There are growing fears tonight that a potentially deadly mosquito borne virus has reached Adelaide.
Let's go live to Hannah Ford with the details.
Hannah authorities aren't taking any chances.
They sure aren't. Rosanna, a major operation has been launched to prevent the spread of Murray Valley Encephalitis, for which there is no vaccine today.
Mosquito traps were rolled out across the northern suburbs, including here at Mawson Lakes, after the virus was detected in insects collected in SA flood zones last week.
Authorities are now desperate to confirm if mosquitoes in the metro area are carrying the virus so they can alert the public as soon as possible, experts say, while the majority of infected.
People show no symptoms.
It can be serious, even fatal in some cases.
Today 7 News spoke to 1 Riverland Local who's rushed to Adelaide to get vaccinated against Japanese in Capillaritis after his neighbour was recently struck down.
And it took him about a number of months before he was able to recognise who we even were, and he nearly died.
It's the highest risk, sort of in our face.
The message from authorities is to avoid being bitten altogether by wearing long sleeves and repellent whenever you're outside.
Samples from the insects collected here will be processed over the next 48 hours. "
