West Nile virus can affect individuals of all ages, but older adults, particularly those aged 50 and above, are at the highest risk for severe illness and complications. Younger, healthy individuals may experience mild or no symptoms if infected. However, the overall incidence of West Nile virus infections tends to be higher in adults compared to children. Prevention, especially for older adults, is crucial during peak mosquito activity seasons.
