West Nile Virus and Mosquitoes

You get West Nile Virus by being bitten by a little bug, one you hate, called a Mosquito. I personally would not mind deleting mosquitoes from the Earth, however this would be very difficult to do. We have a problem today because the hot weather expands the atmosphere and these little bugs and other insects can hitch a ride on the Jet Stream and fly high all the way across the ocean? Is it Global Warming, hard to say, perhaps a normal Earth warming cycle climate change. After all it was a hell of a problem from what archeologists have found in the old Chinese writings of pre-2700 B.C. in that area of the world.

Safe to say however these types of things will occur in greater frequency when temperatures are hotter during solar flares, space storms, El Nino years and of course Global Warming. However, no matter what you feel about global warming it beats the freeze out of global cooling. The most screwed up deal of West Nile Virus is certain mosquitoes hibernate and the damn virus can last within its hibernated host until Spring and go get more victims then. Great? Well such is life on Earth and probably Mars and other places, where we will find frozen species operating at the poles.

If you just love these little bugs raise your hands. Ah no one, so should we kill them all? We can't we. Should we reduce them? Probably, but if it hurts the bats, it will piss off the bats, who are our friends and help our farmers eat the bugs so they can use less pesticides, which is preferable to our food supply, cost to farmer and the environment as the pesticides run off into creeks, lakes and rivers and then to the ocean. Got Blood? That is what they are looking for and as they take your blood they leave that tiny little virus inside you which multiplies and causes havoc. Each year we are getting more and more West Nile Virus cases. The Middle Easterners have been dealing with it for as long as we can find written recorded history of their endeavors. For us in the United States it is a new problem but a serious one. So pay attention and learn how you might better reduce your risk of getting West Nile Virus.
