A Second Human Case Of EEEV Reported In Massachusetts

A Second Human Case Of EEEV Reported In Massachusetts

Massachusetts health officials have confirmed a second human case of eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV) in a resident, along with a second horse case on Thursday. The most recent human case involves a woman in her 30s from Plymouth County, where she was exposed to the virus, according to health officials.

The first case was in an older man in his 80’s. According to a report by WCVB5, an ABC News affiliate in Boston, state health officials said aerial spraying was conducted in the area earlier this week, but both the woman and the horse became infected before the operation.

“It really makes us think about being more aware of this and more careful,” said Agnus Bevilacqua. The town of Plymouth is responding by shutting things down to the slave class already. It has been closing parks at dusk and rescheduling school sports to earlier in the day; moving traditional Friday night football games to a 4 p.m. start.

Some residents have taken notice of the changes. “It’s a pretty big tradition here on Friday nights,” said John Hilliard, who opposes the curfew. “I think the town should leave it to the individual if they want to take the necessary precautions. To penalize everyone as a whole, I just think it’s wrong.” But this is what rulers do. They impose it on the slave class in its entirety, which is why the only path to freedom is to first understand that we are slaves, and they stand together to tell them “no.”

EEE is a “rare but serious” disease. It can be deadly and cause long-term physical and mental problems for those who survive. The rulers have yet to push a “vaccine” for this virus and there apparently no treatments available.

“EEE can cause severe illness and possibly lead to death in any age group; however, people under age 15 and over age 50 are at particular risk,” a MassDPH statement said. “EEE does not occur every year, but based on current evidence, a high risk of occurrence of human cases exists in 2024.”

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 30% of humans who become infected end up dying. Those who survive are often permanently disabled, and few completely recover, Massachusetts authorities say. The disease is prevalent in birds, and although humans and some other mammals can catch EEE, they don’t spread the disease. Humans are infected by bites form mosquitoes carrying the virus.

Symptoms of an EEEV infection include fever, headache, vomiting, diarrhea, and seizures.
