A
total of 361 presumptively viremic
blood donors (PVD) have been
reported to CDC's ArboNET surveillance
program through state and local
health departments for 2006. A PVD is a person whose blood tested positive when screened for the presence of West Nile virus. PVDs are followed
up by the blood agency to verify
their infection with
additional tests. Some PVDs do go on to develop symptoms
after donation, at which point
they would be included
in the count of human disease cases by their state.
