Lancaster County is reporting a human case of the West Nile Virus.

It's the first one in the county this year. Health officials will only say it was a person in rural Lancaster County.

They've also found several positive mosquito pools for the West Nile Virus. They say the drought means fewer mosquitoes, but the ones we do have are more likely to have West Nile.
