"Two viruses that have never before seen in New Hampshire have shown up in the same person.Click here to watch News 9's report.The Department of Health and Human Services said a man from Hillsborough County has tested positive for both the Jamestown Canyon virus, which is transmitted by infected mosquitoes, and the Powassan virus, which is carried by ticks.Public health director Dr. Jose Montero said both viruses have been around the United States for a while, and the Powassan virus has been found in Maine and Vermont, so the New Hampshire case is not a surprise.Montero said residents should take the same precautions they use to prevent other mosquito and tick viruses, including wearing effective insect repellent and doing regular tick checks.John Yule, a manager at the Wildlife Taxidermy Sport Center in Manchester, said people should think about ways to prevent bug bites anytime they head outside.\"It's a fact of life in the outdoors these days. There seems to be more prevalence of it,\" Yule said.Beyond repellent sprays, Yule offers hunters and their dogs tick-resistant camouflage and clothing. He said anyone who spends time outdoors will eventually be bitten.\"It's not if, it's when,\" Yule said. \"There's no sense playing with fire.\"12967056"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
