The West Nile Virus (WNV) season has begun and the Montgomery County Health Department (MCHD) is recommending that residents take precautions to clear away mosquito breeding areas around their homes. WNV, which surfaced in the U.S. more than ten years ago, is commonly transmitted back and forth between infected birds and mosquitoes. However, humans can become the unintended hosts of the disease when they are bitten by an infected mosquito. With the onset of warmer weather and peak WNV season approaching, MCHD is reminding residents that they can help prevent the spread of WNV by eliminating standing water from their property. “West Nile Virus was particularly prevalent last year, and in preparation for this upcoming season, we urge …

The Division of Water Quality Management is hoping to better track possible drought conditions in our area.
The Montgomery County Health Department recently released the first findings from its groundwater-monitoring program. The program began in the summer of 2005 after a significant drought in the previous year made the health department realize they did not have enough information on groundwater in the county, said Kyle Schmeck, director of Water Quality Management. “The health department felt we didn’t have enough data, locally, to determine whether we, as a county, were experiencing low water resources,” Schmeck said. According to Schmeck, the program now monitors 19 wells in the county. He said none of the wells are being used and are not influenced by any major withdrawals that could affect the figures. Some of the towns in the program …

The Department of Health said it will investigate the East Norriton McDonald's, which is accused in the reported incident.
Last Monday, around 6 p.m., a Lower Frederick man picked up dinner for his daughter. He pulled into the East Norriton McDonald’s drive-through and ordered their meal. Wanting just to provide his daughter with warm, tasty food, he says he got more than he bargained for in a “not-too-happy meal.” His 6-year-old daughter began to eat and sip her small Coke. Then, through the straw and into her mouth came an unexpected and definitely undesired addition to her drink, her father claimed. The cup contained an earthworm, according to the family. “It was so gross,” said the father, who has asked that neither he nor his daughter be named in the incident for both her protection and in the event the case goes into litigation. “[My daughter] started …
