*The immediate causes of death in patients with West Nile and other related viral encephalitis commonly include pneumonia, heart attack, pulmonary embolism, septicemia, etc., rather than direct neurological damage or dysfunction, per se. For some individuals with serious pre-existing health problems, West Nile virus infection is a contributory cause of death.
