First West Nile Virus Case in Canada This Year Confirmed

Abstract:

An adult in Toronto has contracted West Nile virus without travel, marking Canada’s first local case in 2025. Spread by mosquito bites, symptoms vary from mild flu-like illness to severe neurological complications. There’s no vaccine—prevention relies on insect repellent, long clothing, and eliminating standing water.
