La Crosse virus (LCV) is a single-stranded RNA virus that can cause encephalitis in humans and is transmitted predominantly by mosquitoes. It is often mistaken for herpes simplex encephalitis (1). During human infections, LCV initially presents as a nonspecific summertime illness with fever, headache, nausea, vomiting and lethargy. Death occurs in less than 1% of clinical cases.
