Danbury has a comprehensive mosquito control and monitoring program that runs from April through October. There is a state mosquito collecting site in Danbury and there have been no positive mosquitoes with EEE. As a result, Danbury has not restricted any activity in the community. This is in line with the recommendation from the Connecticut Department of Public Health. There have been three EEE-related deaths in Eastern Connecticut. People in the Greater Danbury area are still however encouraged to use personal protection measures, including mosquito repellent and wearing long-sleeves, long pants and socks when outdoors. The Danbury Health Department is asking residents to drain standing water around their property.
