Infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci has been hospitalized after he contracted the West Nile virus (WNV), and has since been recuperating at home.

A spokesperson for Fauci confirmed the development on Aug. 24, noting that the former White House chief medical advisor is expected to make a full recovery. The spokesperson shared this to the Associated Press (AP) on condition of anonymity due to security concerns.

Dr. Jonathan LaPook, the chief medical correspondent for CBS News, said Fauci “was hospitalized nearly 10 days ago after showing symptoms including fever, chills and severe fatigue.” The CBS News correspondent added that Fauci himself surmised that he was likely infected from a mosquito bite he got in his backyard.

According to the AP, WNV is primarily transmitted through infected mosquito bites. Around one in five persons infected experience symptoms like fever, headache, body aches, vomiting, diarrhea, or rashes. Around one in 150 meanwhile, develop serious and potentially fatal conditions.

There are no vaccines or specific treatments for WNV, but avoiding mosquito bites appears to be the best measure to prevent infection. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention had reported 216 WNV cases across 33 states as of Aug. 20, per the AP.

The news of the 83-year-old Fauci’s hospitalization after being infected with WNV followed almost a month after he admitted to testing positive for the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) a third time. He made this admission during a July 30 interview with Dr. Jeremy Faust, editor-in-chief of MedPage Today.

“I got infected about two weeks ago,” said Fauci, the former director of the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases. “It was my third COVID-19 infection, and I had been vaccinated and boosted a total of six times.” (Related: Fauci tests positive for COVID-19 a third time despite being VACCINATED 6 TIMES.)

WNV not the only mosquito-borne disease making a resurgence

It appears that WNV is not the only mosquito-borne disease making a resurgence as of late. The Daily Mail reported that a city in Massachusetts has set an outdoor curfew for residents after a person contracted a reportedly rare illness transmitted by insects.

Health authorities in Oxford, Massachusetts – located about 50 miles southwest of Boston – announced the curfew following a resident being struck with Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE). According to the Mail, the curfew aims to reduce the risk of residents being bitten by mosquitoes carrying the EEE virus.

EEE causes fever and brain swelling in those infected and can lead to seizures and comas. A third of people infected die, and those who recover often suffer from lifelong physical and mental disabilities.

The Bay State reported 12 cases and six deaths from EEE in 2019. The following year, five EEE cases and one death were reported there. The state did not report any cases and deaths between 2021 and 2023, according to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health.

The Oxford Board of Health issued an advisory outlining tips to prevent contracting EEE. It recommended wearing long sleeves and long pants, applying insect repellent and avoiding peak mosquito hours from sunset until sunrise. The advisory also urged residents to avoid the collection of clean, stagnant water due to the latter being breeding grounds for mosquitoes.

But looking at this deeply, the timing of Fauci’s reported hospitalization for WNV and the EEE case in Massachusetts appears to be pushing some sinister agenda. It is worth noting that the resurgence of mosquito-based diseases, alongside the World Health Organization‘s monkeypox declaration, occurs just months before Americans head to polling places in November.
