West Nile virus surge across Europe and North America
Overview
The West Nile virus outbreak has expanded significantly across Europe. By early September 2026, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) reported 1,086 locally acquired infections across 15 countries. Italy has reported the highest volume with 516 cases, followed by Greece with 284 and Spain with 88.
In Greece, the National Public Health Organization (EODY) recorded 324 domestic cases and 30 deaths, marking a new annual record. The Attica region has implemented emergency mosquito spraying, and the virus has reached Crete, with several locally acquired cases reported in Rethymno and urban Heraklion. In North Macedonia, 58 cases and eight deaths have been confirmed, primarily in Skopje. Bulgaria and Albania have also reported their first cases of the season.
In Italy, authorities are managing outbreaks in multiple regions. Beyond the previously established task forces, recent reports indicate 312 cases through mid-August, with fatalities in Veneto and Campania. Local municipalities, such as Bisceglie, have initiated nocturnal adulticide treatments. Italy is also managing concurrent Dengue fever outbreaks in Tuscany and Umbria.
In Romania, the National Institute of Public Health reported 58 cases and three deaths, with Bucharest remaining the primary hotspot. In Cyprus, while experts suggest transmission is not yet widespread, health officials have issued urgent warnings following a fatality in the Nicosia region. In Spain, the Junta de Andalucía declared alerts in several municipalities after detecting the virus in mosquito traps. In the United States, a 13-year-old boy in California was hospitalized with transverse myelitis, a rare complication of the virus.
