Nipah virus
Aashiq Abuâs movie is a triumph, and what makes it even more poignant is watching it while remembering that Kerala is once again dealing with a Nipah virus outbreak.
The blood and body fluid samples had been sent to the National Institute of Virology in Pune, Malayala Manorama reported.
The government said four peopleâthree who attended to the student initially and one person who studied with himâwere suffering from fever and sore throat.
A 23-year-old college studentâs blood samples of the student were tested at the National Institute of Virology (NIV) in Pune, which confirmed Nipah.
According to Malayala Manorama, four people, including two nurses who were treating the student may have contracted the disease.
The student, hailing from Ernakulam district, had studied in a college in Thodupuzha in Idukki and had stayed in Thrissur recently in connection with a camp.
