After a three-year hiatus, West Nile virus has made its return to Wilson County, according to an area veterinarian.

Jeffrey Glover, DVM, of the Animal Crossing Veterinary Hospital in Floresville, said two cases have been confirmed in the county -- one in the Poth area and another in northern Wilson County.

As of Oct. 19, one horse has died and a second has been mildly affected by the virus.

Glover advises horse owners to vaccinate now for protection against the disease.

Read more about this in the Oct. 28 issue of the Wilson County News.
