The West Nile virus is moving farther south in Oklahoma. A 71-year-old Muskogee woman is also believed to have the disease, but officials are still waiting for official confirmation.

So far, only three people have tested positive for the virus in Oklahoma, one each in Tulsa, Washington and Ottawa Counties.

Meanwhile, initial tests on mosquitoes taken from the McAlester Army Ammunition Plant are positive for the West Nile virus.

Officials say it will take a week to ten days for final test results.
