Safety Alert - Japanese encephalitis (JE) virus

JE virus is spread by mosquitos to humans through bites from infected mosquitos and can cause a rare but potentially serious infection of the brain. The Department of Health advise that residents and people visiting northern Victoria – particularly inland riverine regions and near the Murray River – are at risk.

Taking steps to avoid being bitten is a critical step to protect against mosquito-borne disease. There are simple steps to protect against mosquito-borne diseases:

• Cover up – wear long, loose-fitting clothing when outside (mosquitoes can bite through tight clothing).
• Use mosquito repellents containing picaridin or DEET on all exposed skin. Apply a thin, even layer of repellent (as per label instructions) to any exposed skin, making sure you reapply it regularly.
• Limit outdoor activity if lots of mosquitoes are about.
• If possible, remove stagnant water where mosquitoes can breed around your campsite.
• Mosquito coils can be effective in small outdoor areas where you gather to sit or eat.

Further information is available from the Department of Health Japanese encephalitis health alert.
