Foreclosed Homes\u00a0to Blame for Spread of West Nile Virus?<\/h2>\n

Foreclosed Homes\u00a0to Blame for Spread of West Nile Virus?<\/p><\/div>\n

A home owner living in the Los Angeles area says that the abandoned, foreclosed<\/strong> home next door gave her the West Nile virus. Debbie Davis says the foreclosed<\/em> home has had an algae-green pool for months, and despite her numerous calls to the city code-enforcement officials as well as public health and bank officials to clean it up, no one has stepped up to do it.<\/p>\n

Davis says when she tried to donate blood recently, doctors informed her that her blood contained the West Nile virus. She\u2019s blaming the next-door pool for becoming a breeding ground of mosquitoes that gave it to her. The virus, which can be deadly, can be transmitted by mosquitoes.<\/p>\n

Davis says that she \u2014 along with several of her neighbors \u2014 have been trying to get city officials and Bank of America, which owns the home, to clean up the dirty pool for months in the neighborhood of million-dollar hillside homes.<\/p>\n

“There it is, a sludge pit,” Davis told the Daily News Los Angeles. “And the likely cause of my virus. The problem is, I’ve reported the pool to everybody … The end result is, I’ve got West Nile virus. It never should have come to this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Davis says she has experienced West Nile symptoms like headaches and fatigue. Another nearby neighbor says they are awaiting to hear results on whether their 17-year-old son, who has been experiencing symptoms, also has West Nile.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a spokeswoman for the county’s mosquito abatement district told reporters that it has been treating the pool on a monthly basis, pouring chemicals in the pool that aim to kill mosquitoes.<\/p>\n

“There could be West Nile virus in that area \u2014 but it may not have come from the pool at the foreclosed<\/span> home,” says a spokeswoman for the Greater Los Angeles County Vector Control District.<\/p>\n
