"West Nile Virus" is spread by the bite of an infected mosquito, and can infect people, horses, birds, and some other animals, and the spread of the virus throughout the United States has proven to be quite newsworthy. However, most people who catch the virus will have either no symptoms or only mild ones. Even so, the West Nile Virus can cause a severe and sometimes fatal illness known as West Nile Encephalitis, an inflammation of the brain.
