LIVE: Nipah Fears Prompt Airport Checks Across Asia After India Confirms Two Cases

Описание: Fears over the Nipah virus have triggered enhanced airport screening across several Asian countries after India confirmed two cases in West Bengal. While Indian authorities say the outbreak has been successfully contained, countries with high numbers of Indian travellers have stepped up precautionary checks. Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, Malaysia, Nepal, China and Indonesia have introduced measures ranging from temperature screening to heightened border surveillance. Health experts say the overall risk to the public remains low, as Nipah does not spread easily between humans. Authorities stress that vigilance, not panic, is driving these preventive steps.
