First Case of Rare EEE Confirmed In Connecticut

Two more human cases of the rare, mosquito-borne Eastern Equine Encephalitis virus have been confirmed in Rhode Island, state officials announced Tuesday.
A child younger than 10 years old in Coventry and a person in their 50s from Charlestown both contracted the potentially fatal infection late last month and are now recovering after being discharged from the hospital, according to the state health and environmental management departments.
The virus was also found in a deer from Exeter this week, the departments said in a statement.
The findings bring the total number of confirmed human cases in the state this year to three after a person from West Warwick died from the infection last week.
