Nipah Virus: The first death took place on August 30 and the second death on Monday. (Representational) New Delhi: Two people have died due to Nipah virus in Kerala's Kozhikode district, Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya confirmed today. The confirmation comes hours after a district-wide health alert was issued yesterday after two "unnatural" deaths were reported from a private hospital. "A central team sent to Kerala to take stock of the situation and assist the state government in Nipah virus management," Mr Mandaviya said. The first death took place on August 30 and the second death on Monday, reported news agency PTI.
How Kerala Government Is Preparing
The Kerala government has set up a control room in Kozhikode and advised people to use masks as a precautionary measure. Earlier in the day, Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan advised people to exercise caution and said there was no reason to worry as those who were in close contact with the victims were under treatment. "There is nothing to worry about. Those who were in contact with the two are being traced and treated. Being careful is the key to tackling the situation. Everyone is requested to cooperate with the action plan prepared by the health department," the Chief Minister said.
