Well, Tonight I was walking near some still water ( which the county will hear about.. ) and I was bittin by a mostiquito. West Nile is in my area, so my question is: What are the symptons? Could I die? What are the chances? I just want to be safe then sorry. Thanks

West Nile Virus Symptons

If you do contract the diesease, yes it is fatal. I would suggest getting in with a doctor soon since you say it has been appearing in your area. I don't know the symptoms yet, but your doctor can tell you.

Here is a LINK to info about it... If I develop any of those symptons anytime soon, I will visit a grr.. doctor

It's not always fatal. If it's treated you should be fine. We have it in my area. Just because you're bitten doesn't mean you'll get it. It's still very rare. If you start developing a high fever then you should see your doctor.
