Original Note:
Several areas in the US, inc New York, are being sprayed with low concentrations of mosquito-killing pesticides to combat outbreaks of the West Nile virus. The pesticide can cause skin or eye irritation, but the virus can cause meningitis or encephalitis, which can be fatal. https://www.brooklynpaper.com/bites-spray-mosquito-pesticides-sept-5/
