 "Nipah virus case confirmed in Kerala's Malappuram district: Officials")
A case of Nipah virus has been confirmed in the Malappuram district of Kerala, health officials said on Wednesday.
State Health Minister Veena George stated that a woman from Valanchery in the district has been diagnosed with Nipah virus infection.
She is currently undergoing treatment at a hospital in Perinthalmanna, health officials said.
They said the woman had been experiencing fever for the past week and developed symptoms such as cough and breathing difficulties. Suspecting a possible Nipah infection, her samples were sent to the virology laboratory in Pune.
The lab later confirmed it to be a case of Nipah infection, officials said.
