    The danger of Nipah virus is visible in Kerala. So far two people have died due to this dangerous virus in the state. Four suspected patients are being monitored. Their samples have been sent for testing. In view of the current situation, the team of the Union Health Ministry has reached Kerala. The central team will give suggestions to the Kerala government on how to combat the disease at the ground level. Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya has said that guidelines have been fixed because there is no specific medicine for it. The suspicious deaths were confirmed.

    Nipah virus spreads through the saliva of bats. This infection spreads to humans by eating fruits eaten by bats. Its infection also occurs from human to human. It can spread from an infected member to other family members.
