A new virus is slowly expanding and spreading, following in the footsteps
of the “tomato virus” and the “monkeypox virus.” At least seven children
have died from a recent outbreak of severe Strep A infections, prompting
health officials in the United Kingdom to warn parents. On Friday, the
Health Security Agency issued a rare health warning, asking parents to
watch for fever, sore throat, and swelling of glands (called lymph nodes)
in the neck in their children. Since September, at least seven children
have reportedly died from the virus. While the reported instances have
increased by more than 4.5 times the quantity recorded in recent years.
