Eastern Equine Encephalitis

Most of us think of mosquitoes as a nuisance, but they can also be a serious threat to our health. West Nile Virus is probably the most well-known mosquito-borne disease in the United States, but there are several others, including our subject of today’s podcast, Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE). Dr. Donald Hoenig, the state veterinarian of Maine, discusses the dangers of EEE, for horses and people.
