6. An incredible story happened to 55-year-old American Joe Casey, who found himself on the brink of life and death after a seemingly ordinary mosquito bite. The victim spent three weeks in a coma and completely lost the ability to walk and talk after waking up. The fatal encounter with the insect occurred in August, when the man's health deteriorated sharply. As it turned out later, the mosquito was a carrier of three dangerous diseases at once: Eastern equine encephalitis, West Nile fever, and St. Louis encephalitis. The triple infection dealt a serious blow to Casey's immune system. As a result, the patient began to develop a dangerous accumulation of fluid in the skull, which created critical pressure on the brain. The surviving American has a long road to recovery ahead - about two and a half months of rehabilitation. Having survived such a serious test, Joe Casey addressed his compatriots with an important warning: "Do not underestimate the size of the enemy."
