WEST NILE-LIKE VIRUS, AIRCRAFT SPRAYING: REQUEST FOR INFO

This is a survey for reports of flights leaving New York recently that

have

been sprayed with insecticide after departure, to kill any mosquitoes

that

may have boarded there & could possibly be carrying West Nile-like

virus.

I was told Brazil has been requiring this since 1 Sep 1999, but it may

have

only been their national airlines, because a relative arrived here in

Rio

on Continental on 30 Sep & didn´t see any spraying. Of course, she

may

have been sleeping when it was

done -- it was a night flight. Or it may have been done through the

ventilation system rather than by a steward/ess walking through the

cabin

with an aerosol can.

We also had an enquiry from New Zealand as to whether planes arriving

there

from NYC were sprayed.

Please send any relevant information to me at my e-mail address below.

Here on Long Island, the only death from West Nile Virus was a 74 yr old woman

who was a severe diabetic, who was suffering many health problems due to her

diabetes, was going blind and had lost the will to live for the last few years,

(all this according to her son) because of her ill health. I am sorry that she

died, but can't help but think she may not had much of a chance to survive even

a cold or the flu in that condition!! Still, her children lamented, " why did'nt

they spray sooner?? "

I totally agree ! I also think that is what was/is killing all the

birds!! Notice how the virus was around for over a month but the birds didn't

start dying until 2 weeks later, COINCIDING with the spraying. I wrote a letter

to our county exec and just got a 3 page reply today about how they came to the

action of spraying. If I wasn't so informed on my own of this crap, I may have

actually have bought the crap he was handing me. I can see how others would!!

Scary!
