Hepatitis warning signs in children: 10 symptoms to look for as cases continue to rise
28.05.2022 - 12:47 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Parents have been asked to keep an eye out for hepatitis symptoms as cases continue to rise in the UK.
Latest figures from the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) say there are as many as 222 cases of hepatitis in children aged 10 and under.
There have been 31 confirmed cases in Scotland and nationwide figures rose by 20 yesterday.
The infection affects the liver, and medical professionals are concerned about the severity of the disease in these young, otherwise healthy children, the Mirror reports.
17 children have needed a liver transplant and one child has sadly died of liver failure. To slow the spread, parents are being asked to stay vigilant and to be aware of symptoms.
According to the UK Health Security Agency, potential warning signs include:
Hepatitis is spread through close contact, typically through coughing, sneezing, or touching contaminated surfaces according to UKHSA advice.
In a recent blog post they said: "The most effective way to reduce the spread of infections is to practice good hand and respiratory hygiene.
"Cover your nose and mouth when you cough and sneeze, wash your hands regularly. Supervise thorough handwashing in younger children and make sure they cover their nose and mouth when they cough or sneeze."
Public health teams are investigating possible causes to the sudden increase in cases among children.
One theory is that due to Covid-19, children were mixing far less than they used to, meaning they caught fewer infections than before the pandemic.
Now that lockdown has ended and children are able to socialise again, there has been a rise in infections.
Researchers are studying if the problems are developing "in tandem" with another virus.
This includes the possibility of it mixing with the virus

Scorpions changed lyrics to ‘Wind Of Change’ because it “romanticised Russia”
Die Zeit. “It simply isn’t right to romanticise Russia with lyrics like: ‘I follow the Moskva/ Down to Gorky Park…Let your balalaika sing’“.The band have changed the lyrics to: “Now listen to my heart/ It says Ukrainia/ Waiting for the wind to change,” which are projected on a screen behind the band as they perform.Released in 1991, the perestroika power ballad is the German hard rockers’ most famous song; it was voted song of the 20th century by viewers of the public broadcaster ZDF in 2005.Even though the song was released over a year after the fall of the Berlin Wall, it is widely remembered as the soundtrack to the era of economic and social changes in the former Soviet Union that heralded the end of the cold war.Meine said he composed the words on September 3 and 4, 1989, a month after Scorpions performed at the Moscow Music Peace festival.Elsewhere in the interview with Die Zeit, Meine discussed his friendship with Hanoverian ex-chancellor turned Russian gas lobbyist Gerhard Schröder, whose fifth wedding party he attended in 2018.“I haven’t spoken with Gerhard Schröder for a while,” Meine said.
