Excellent patient information on West Nile Virus.
Most cases are asymptomatic but I see a handful of cases every year that are not and need hospital care. Treatment is supportive. With summer heat and more time outdoors DEET insect repellents are your friend.

Tell your Congressional Representatives to reject the SAVE Act!
The SAVE act (HR22) is not just a way to further voter suppression allegedly to halt voter fraud, a virtually nonexistent problem, it is a backdoor repeal of the 19th Amendment for 69 million women-

Leadership is always a challenge, but especially in times of change.
We don’t have to walk alone.
Make time to connect with peers who share your values.
Lean on each other on long days when you’re discouraged.
And celebrate wins.
Friendship is key to sustainability 🌱

Immigrants are an undeniable part of America’s fabric. We refuse to be silenced by the Trump administration’s anti-immigrant agenda.
