Why it matters: As overnight temperatures rise, Culex mosquitoes will begin to hatch. They can carry the West Nile virus. About 1 in 5 people have symptoms and it can be deadly. Last year, 19 California residents died.
What can I do? The solution is easy, simple and cheap. Wear insect repellent and cover up with pants and long sleeves.

Mwen kouvri sante nan Sid Kalifòni ak endistri swen sante nan zòn Los Angeles la.
Mwen te kòmanse nan nouvo sa a jis anvan pandemi an fèmen pifò bagay desann e li te yon ane entans jan mwen te travay fè sa k ap pase kòm fasil yo konprann jan mwen kapab. Pou egzanp, isit la nan misyon nou mete pou kouvri woulo vaksen an:
Nou pral ede Angelenos jwenn enfòmasyon egzat sou vaksen an, navige obstak yo pou yo pran vaksen an epi pataje eksperyans nou jan nou eseye fè li nan lòt bò pandemi sa a.
Mwen te deja travay nan radyo piblik nan Oklahoma ak Colorado, men mwen te tonbe nan renmen ak mòn yo ak plaj yo nan Kalifòni. Si ou koute byen lè mwen ap viv sou radyo a sou 89.3 KPCC, ou ka tande twa chat mwen fè yon aparans - malgre pi bon efò mwen pou kenbe yo trankil.
