West Nile Detected in Rhode Island | Providence News
West Nile virus has been detected for the first time this year in Rhode Island — a single positive mosquito sample found in Providence. While officials remain vigilant, the overall risk level is currently medium. Experts urge residents to protect themselves by using repellent, wearing loose clothing, and eliminating standing water where mosquitoes breed — especially during dawn and dusk hours. This is the only confirmed case so far, but ongoing monitoring continues as the season progresses. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn. Advertise on…
