Massachusetts health officials have confirmed a second human case of eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV) in a resident, along with a second horse case on Thursday. The most recent human case involves a woman in her 30s from Plymouth County, where she was exposed to the virus, according to health officials.
The first case was in an older man in his 80’s. According to a report by WCVB5, an ABC News affiliate in Boston, state health officials said aerial spraying was conducted in the area earlier this week, but both the woman and the horse became infected before the operation.
