New tonight. At 530 eastern equine encephalitis has been detected in Maine. That word coming in tonight from Maine CDC. They say a wild turkey in Burnham tested positive. The first wild animal found with triple E in the state this year, there haven't been any people to test positive for the mosquito borne virus so far. But the CDC recommends taking basic precautions against mosquitoes, like wearing long sleeves and using epa approved repellent. In many cases, people with viruses like triple E are symptom free but more serious cases can be deadly.
