Positive Case of EEE in Amesbury near Merrimac Town Line

[Gastrok]

Thought I'd pass the info along if you also live in the area. I didn't really know anything about Eastern Equine Encephalitis until I got a town notice moments ago and looked it up on the CDC website:

http://www.cdc.gov/easternequineencephalitis/

Seriously bad and no specific treatment.

33% mortality rate and serious brain damage in survivors... maybe think twice about using repellent

While EEE is bad news I just have to question an organization who views guns as a disease and threat to the general public.

Is that really the position of CDC? Unbelievable.

EEE was found in my town near there the other day, they're spraying even more next week.

I couldn't tell if that was sarcasm or not and if it was ignore this. The CDC has done lots of studies on the negative effects of firearms on the general public. In doing this they like anyone pushing an agenda skews numbers to better suit their needs such as considering a child to be anyone under 30. So I will just say the CDC isn't a fan of your second amendment.

Damn, I'm almost surrounded! (I'm in Merrimac about a mile from Newton)

I just got the same notice...Apparently they can't spray due to the cooler temps.

There is a guy from Georgetown with EEE now. He reportedly is in a medically induced coma and the prognosis is not good. There was also a horse in G'town with it too just before Labor Day.
