Guess what that means. All those mosquitoes in the Sierra become suspect. Also, the more we learn, the more risk with the virus. It doesn't only cause severe birth defects. It can cause brain damage in the infected individual. I understand that some here already appear to have brain damage, but the rest can't sleep easily around mosquitoes anymore. Have fun...
