Health department officials in Door and Kewaunee counties are recommending people take precautions to reduce the risk of contracting Eastern Equine Encephalitis.  That follows confirmed cases in six horses in Northwestern Wisconsin.  Eastern Equine Encephalitis is spread to animals and humans through mosquito bites.  Chelsea Smies with the Door County Public Health Department says limiting time outdoors and eliminating potential mosquito breeding areas.

So far, the Wisconsin Department of Public Health says there are no confirmed EEE cases in people.
