China has raised the alarm over the outbreak of the Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV), sparking panic in the country and elsewhere and prompting the authorities to declare health emergency.
The HMPV outbreak hits China about six years after the Cvid-19 Pandemic plagued – first China and later whole of the world in 2019 around the same time.
HMPV Symptoms
The HMPV causes respiratory diseases with symptoms similar to flu, including fever, cough, nasal congestion, sore throat, and sneezing.
"The virus can cause serious illness among infants, children, the elderly over 65 of age or people with weakened immune systems," the Cambodia's Ministry of Health (MoH) said.
