Guest guest Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 >----------------- Well, I was one of the people who suggested West Nile. But on further reflection, the problem with this idea is that West Nile is a summer disease, carried by mosquitos. Usually the cases start in June. So I know it's been an unusually warm winter, but when I looked at a paper looking at the seasonal incidence, West Nile in February just doesn't seem to hold up, unless I'm missing something. I don't think there are mosquitos out in DC in February! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
