West Nile detected in more zip codes

(WMC-TV) - The same day that officials announced the state's first death of the year connected to West Nile Virus, the Shelby County Health Department announced that it has found the illness in a pair of additional zip codes.

Tests show that West Nile is now present in both the 38103 and 38028.

To help kill the mosquitoes before they have a chance to make anyone sick, health department workers will spray pesticides in the following areas:

Wednesday, August 1 from 8:15 p.m. until 11:15 p.m.

  • 38126

Thursday, August 2 from 8:15 p.m. until 11:15 p.m.

  • 38106
  • 38114
