Tuolumne County health officials confirmed the state's first human West Nile virus infection of 2026, urging residents to take mosquito-bite prevention measures. Earlier, Los Angeles County health officials reported the first West Nile virus death of the year in the San Fernando Valley, also calling for mosquito protection.

Three claims were partially confirmed: Tuolumne County health officials reported the first confirmed human West Nile virus infection in California for 2026 on August 26; California recorded the first West Nile virus fatality in Los Angeles County for the year on August 21; and California's West Nile virus infections reached a five-year high of 30 human cases and three deaths statewide as of August 21. One claim, reporting that the CDC noted more than 180 West Nile virus infections with eight fatalities across 30 states as of August 18, lacked sufficient evidence.
