WHO

The World Health Organization (WHO) stated that 32 countries in the world have reported so far, for 920 cases of acute hepatitis in children.

Half of the cases, 267 are in the European continent, while a third in the United States, writes Reuters.

Health authorities around the world have been investigating the mysterious increase in severe cases of hepatitis, or inflammation of the liver, in children.

The first case in Europe was first reported in April in Britain and has since spread to other countries.

The WHO said 45 children with acute hepatitis had requested a liver transplant and while 18 had lost their lives, most of them in the Americas./euronews
