Amid the legal attempts to get V.N. treated, the health department noted in court documents that V.N. had been in a car accident in January 2023, after which she had gone to an emergency department complaining of chest pain.

About 1 in 150 cases will develop neuroinvasive disease, which can cause brain swelling, brain damage and death. About 100 people die from West Nile infections in the US annually.
But Emile DeVito, who wrote Monday to the stateâs Division of Fish and Wildlife, asked that officials not adopt the change because of a highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) that is striking peregrine falcons along the coast. DeVito is manager of science and stewardship for the New Jersey Conservation Foundation.
âThe peregrine falcons are dying left and right,â DeVito told The Inquirer on Tuesday. âAnd they are dead within 24 hours of showing symptoms. What we know about it from Michigan and Wisconsin is that itâs going to be a huge problem.â
