The New Mexico Department of Health has confirmed the first West Nile virus case of 2025 in the state on Thursday. According to NMDOH, a Valencia County resident was hospitalized with the infection and has since been discharged.

A local county alerted the community that a dozen mosquitoes have tested positive for West Nile Virus. Greene County Public Health officials were notified by the Ohio Department of Health that 12 mosquito samples taken from Bellbrook, Beavercreek, and Fairborn tested positive for West Nile Virus, according to a media release.

For those in Connecticut Heights, the District vowed to stop the spread of mosquitos by hitting the source -- the insects' larvae.
