The WHO said it was notified on April 5 of 10 severe acute hepatitis cases in children under the age of 10 in central Scotland. There was no known cause.
Cases of severe liver infection are on the rise among children throughout the world, the World Health Organization Friday. No deaths have been reported among the identified cases, but the WHO and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are investigating.
Meanwhile, in the United States, the state of Alabama has reported nine cases of hepatitis in children between 1 and 6 years old without a known cause since October 2021, according to the CDC. These children, as well as some of the European kids, also tested positive for adenovirus, which are a common type of virus spread between people. While it can cause a range of mild to severe illnesses, the virus rarely causes severe hepatitis in healthy people, the CDC said.
Children reported symptoms associated with the illness, including jaundice, diarrhea, vomiting and abdominal pain, according to the WHO. Considering the rise in cases over the past month, the agency forecasts that more will be reported in the coming days.
