Sanquin is launching nationwide West Nile virus screening for all blood donations starting Friday, following the fourth death linked to a contaminated donation. With 28 confirmed cases and a spike to ten new positives, six provinces are now high-risk—Overijssel, Utrecht, Gelderland, Noord-Holland, Noord-Brabant, and Zuid-Holland—with others still being tested despite no local cases. The virus spreads via mosquitoes after infecting birds, often causing mild flu-like symptoms—but can lead to severe neurological conditions in rare cases. While the cause of the latest death remains uncertain, the specific infected blood unit has been pulled from circulation to protect recipients.
