Fatal or not, I don’t want it! I hate that mosquitos have become such a problem in The Villages. We were swarmed this weekend and had to leave our patio.

They probably don't want to "officially announce" it until it is certain so as not to create panic. Or a sales slowdown?

Lots of folks here with 'da-nile' virus and while it often manifests itself in some really strange ways...never heard if it being fatal.
