State veterinarian Dr. Bret Marsh said the virus "is a serious threat to both horses and people in northern Indiana" until the first hard freeze of the fall season occurs. No human cases of the virus disease or mosquitoes infected with the virus have been reported in Indiana this year. But officials said that because northern Indiana contains suitable habitat for mosquitoes that can transmit the virus "humans and horses in all northern Indiana counties are potentially at risk."
