π¨ **EEE Alert** π¨
Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) has Massachusetts residents on high alert as several communities have been elevated to high or critical risk for the virus. This rare but serious mosquito-borne virus poses a significant health risk, especially during the late summer and early fall. Protect yourself and your loved ones by taking precautions:
- **Use insect repellent:** Choose one with DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus.
- **Wear long sleeves and pants:** Especially during peak mosquito activity (dawn and dusk).
- **Eliminate standing water:** Mosquitoes breed in stagnant water, so empty birdbaths, gutters, and any containers holding water.
