WNV at NUS?

Monitoring and surveillance of WNV prevalence increasingly depends on the early detection of WNV in birds on the basis of reports of dead birds. The virus in these birds usually precedes appearance of WNV in humans and can be an early warning of potential human infection.
Ohajuruka, O.A., et al. EID 11(9):1437-1439.

Dead bird outside Biochem.
ARGHHHH!!!!!
Panic! PAnic!



I'm telling you, better go grab some N95 masks quick! Then hide in a hole till next year. Oh, and cover the hole, lest some birds drop in.
