Warning over virus sweeping through Europe with symptoms including sickness, fever, cough and headaches
Two more people in the UK have been diagnosed with a nasty virus which is sweeping through Europe - with symptoms including sickness, fever, cough and persistent headaches.
A UK Health Security Agency spokesman told the Mirror: "There have now been a total of 4 detections through this programme, which was launched in March and aims to detect possible animal to human infections in people who are exposed to infected birds. "However, we know already that the virus can spread to people following close contact with infected birds and this is why, through surveillance programmes like this one, we are monitoring people who have been exposed to learn more about these risks.
In the worst possible cases, bird flu can lead to some severe complications, including pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome. That's why it's absolutely vital to get early treatment if you're infected with the virus.
