The Medway Board of Health (BOH) would like to remind residents that wet weather breeds mosquitos. By taking a few common-sense precautions, people can help protect themselves and their loved ones. It is suggested that residents apply insect repellent, wear long clothing, and be aware of peak mosquito hours. We received notification from the MADPH that the West Nile Virus was detected in a mosquito collected in Medway today.
Please, see attached, the document released by the Department of Public Health today.
