  1. west nile encephalitis

    West Nile Encephalitis is a type of infectious disease caused by the West Nile virus, which is typically transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected mosquito. The virus can cause inflammation of the brain (encephalitis) or the membranes around the brain and spinal cord (meningitis). Symptoms can include high fever, headache, neck stiffness, disorientation, coma, tremors, seizures, or paralysis. However, majority of people infected with West Nile virus do not experience severe symptoms. It gets its name because the virus was first identified in the West Nile district of Uganda in 1937.
