From the Everett, WA Herald:
Teen is 3rd in Snohomish County to test positive for Zika
A Snohomish County teenager who recently traveled to Nicaragua has tested positive for Zika virus, the Snohomish Health District said Tuesday.
This is the third confirmed case involving somebody who lives here. The other patients also had visited areas known to have mosquitoes infected with Zika virus.
No other details were released about the current case beyond the description that the patient is a “female in her teens” who is not pregnant.
And then a mosquito bites her, then someone else and it starts up here. Snohomish county is just south of Whatcom.
