A woman in Amstelveen has developed severe meningitis from West Nile virus — the first such case this year in the Netherlands and only the fourth overall. Public health officials confirm the virus is now locally established, with cases in humans, horses, and birds. Two deaths have already been linked to West Nile this year — one in Utrecht, another in Drenthe — though one was travel-related. While most infections are mild or asymptomatic, this outbreak serves as a stark warning: West Nile is no longer just a foreign threat. The RIVM will release more details later this week.
