Correspondence West Nile not found in local birds this year The Huron County Health Unit reports that as of July 16, Huron County residents have reported 132 dead ; bird sightings. Of these, only 40 were crows or blue jays, which are the types of birds being collected for West Nile virus testing; crows and blue jays are particularly sensitive to the virus. Dead bird sightings have been reported in all nine municipalities. To date, only 15 dead crows or blue jays have been suitable for testing; all have tested negative for the virus. Like humans, West Nile virus is transmitted to the bird population by infected mosquitoes. Symptoms in birds manifest as neurological signs such as convulsions, tremors, head tilt, wing droop, and paralysis. Huron County residents are urged to continue to report all dead crows and blue jays; however, only suitable specimens (dead less than 12 hours and with an intact head) will be picked up by the health unit. The bird specimens are collected by summer students, hired by the Huron County Health Unit, and then shipped to the Canadian Co- operative Wildlife Health Centre in Guelph for screening. All dead crows and blue jays sightings will assist the health unit in mapping out possible West Nile virus activity in Huron County. Report dead crows and blue jays to the Huron County Health Unit West Nile virus 24-hour infoline at 519-482-5119 Ext. 2001, or if calling long distance, 1-877- 837-6143 Ext. 2001. All other dead birds should be discarded in the following manner: • place in a double plastic bag, using rubber gloves, a double plastic bag, or a shovel; • do not touch dead birds with bare hands; • place the bagged bird out with regular household garbage; and • wash hands thoroughly.
