West Nile in Alberta ALBERTA HEALTH SERVICES Contributor
NYE DEBBIE PAULINE NYE, of Coleman, AB beloved wife of Steve and mother to Kelsi, passed away peacefully at the Chinook Regional Hospital, surrounded by her loving family, on Friday, September 15, 2023 at the age of 64 years. Along with her husband and daughter, Debbie is lovingly remembered by her sister, Nancy Tarcon and her children, Trevor (Riva) Tarcon and Sheryl (Brett) Gehring and their families. She was predeceased by her parents, Mike and Pauline (nee Ewashin) Berekoff, her sister, Olive as well as her brother-in-law, Steve Tarcon. Debbie was born, raised and attended school in Coleman. In the early years she worked as a retail clerk in a few local businesses. As her life continued, Debbie took a keen interest in helping kids and went back to school to earn her certificate as a Teacher’s Aide. Here, she found her passion in helping children with learning difficulties. Debbie loved animals and was especially devoted to her family dog, Cocoa. In her heart, she was an artist and loved to pass the time creating special colouring projects. Her true joy though, was spending time with her family, enjoying those moments with Kelsi and watching movies together. Debbie will be remembered for her kind, loving and generous nature. Her happy personality was infectious and you couldn’t help but be cheerful in her presence. She will be dearly missed by her family and many friends. As per Debbie’s request, no funeral will be held. Cremation entrusted to Cornerstone Funeral Home. To send a condolence, please visit www.cornerstonefuneralhome.com
With warm weather continuing to favour mosquito activity in southern Alberta, Alberta Health Services (AHS) is reminding Albertans to take precautions to protect themselves against West Nile virus infection carried by mosquitos. This year has seen nine cases of West Nile virus confirmed in Alberta, two in the Edmonton area, and seven in southern Alberta. Five were acquired in southeastern Alberta in the last month with three individuals diagnosed with West Nile neurological syndrome. After being bitten by a mosquito carrying West Nile virus, people can develop West Nile non-neurological syndrome (formerly known as West Nile fever) or the more serious West Nile neurological syndrome. Symptoms of non-neurological syndrome can be uncomfortable, including fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, skin rash, swollen glands and headache.

For people who develop neurological syndrome, symptoms can be more severe, including tremors, drowsiness, confusion, swallowing problems, high fever, unconsciousness, paralysis and even death. Whenever engaging in outdoor activities, or even just relaxing outside, all Albertans should take these simple steps to prevent bites and protect themselves from West Nile virus: Wear a long-sleeved, light-colored shirt, pants, and a hat. Consider staying indoors at dawn and dusk when mosquitoes are most active. Use a Health Canada approved insect repellant (products containing DEET or Icaridin). For infants younger than 6 months old, do not use an insect repellent containing DEET. Instead, use a mosquito net when babies are outdoors in a crib or stroller. For children 6 months to 2 years old, use insect repellent only when there’s a high risk of insect bites that can spread infections and diseases. Do not use more than once a day. For more information on insect repellants, visit Personal Insect repellents - Canada.ca
