PAGE 16 • PLA1NDEALER -WEDNESDAY. MAY »0, 1978 Keepin' Healthy Even though it is barely Spring, the state health department is "gearing up" its efforts at preventing an out­ break of a late summer-early autumn disease, St. Louis Encephalitis. What causes St. Louis En­ cephalitis, and how can an outbreak be prevented? To begin with, St. Louis Encephalitis is a disease transmitted from birds (who carry the virus in their bloodstreams) to people, through the bite of a particular kind of mosquito <the Culex pipiens). The mosquito bites an infected bird, then later bites a person, and transmits the disease. Not all birds, of course, carry the St. Louis Encephalitis virus. But, if a significant percentage of them are found to be carrying it, and if there are large numbers of Culex pipiens around, the chances of an outbreak in the human population are very good. And this brings us to the way the state health department works to prevent an outbreak. As early in the spring as possible, members of the St. Louis Encephalitis Early Warning team collect mosquitoes and samples of bird blood from areas in the state which have a history of St. Louis Ecephalitis cases. The mosquitoes and bird-blood samples are sent to the public health laboratory, where they are analyzed for the St. Louis Encephalitis virus. If it is determined, by laboratory testing, that a significant percentage of the birds in a particular area are infected with St. Louis En­ cephalitis - and if the Culex pipiens are present in the area - - the potential for human cases is high. But, before human cases develop, aggressive mosquito abatement activities can be conducted to minimize the Culex pipiens. If a potential problem is detected in spring or early summer, there is time to abate the mosquitoes before human cases of the disease develop. There is time, because the Culex pipiens feed only on birds until mid or late summer, when, for a reason no one knows, they change their feeding h«bits and begin to feed on people. That's when mosquitoes which have fed earlier in the year on infected birds, transmit the disease to humans. What can we, as individuals, do to help? The best thing we can do is make sure there are no desirable breeding places for Culex pipiens in our yards. This mosquito looks for small puddles of still, stagnant water on which to lay eggs, such as the water that collects in tin cans, rubber tires, flower vases, bird baths and other items commonly found in yards. The Culex pipiens may also lay eggs on tiny puddles which form under thick shrubs or bushees. So. this spring, look around your yard for places where Culex pipiens might lay eggs, and remove them. If you have a bird bath or other ornamental items which might collect water and which you want to keep, clean them out about once a week and refill them with rlpan water. Our individual efforts now, combined with the work of the Early Warning team, can do a lot to help avert a St. Louis Encephalitis outbreak in August and September. If you want more information about St. Louis Encephalitis, contact your local health department, or write to the Illinois Department of Public Health, St. Louis Encephalitis Program, 2121 West Taylor, Chicago. ; A record $445.6 million in dividends will be paid during 1978 to 4.1 million veterans with GI life insurance policies in fprce, according to the VA.

Inc. or* pleased to prosont you with our wookly so riot of informotivo Roal Estate Artidos. For the past few months, I have wondered if there was much interest in bike trails or bikeways. The Village of Barrington has completed a study on this subject and are moving ahead to make this a reality. Wouldn't it be great to be able to ride o bike from Sunnyside to Johnsburg to McHenry? or from McHenry to Morraine State Park? . . or, from Mc- Cullom Lake to Miller Park to McHenry? McHenry to McHenry Shores? Perhaps the snowmobiles could use the same trails, sin­ ce there would be State money available. Parents and children would be much safer, if trails could be developed . . ,. .and many would take up cyling for the excercise . rather than pass i* by, as they do now because of the risk. If we can get some groups interested it could be worth a try. Phone 815 344 1033 "Inn illiiZI* . CARE REAL ESTATE INC. Phone tlS-344-1033 3717 W. Elm (Across from Jewel) McHenry, II.
