Two More Cases of West Nile

Two more crows in the region have tested positive for West Nile Virus.
The birds were located in the Atikokan and Devlin areas.
Last week, the first confirmed case of West Nile was identified in Kenora.
Health Officer Al Mathers says the numbers still remain low because there have been fewer of the virus carrying mosquitoes.
However, Mathers says local residents should still take precautions.
No human cases of West Nile have been reported in Northwestern Ontario.
