NIPAH VIRUS | India Red Alert 🚨Nipah Virus Outbreak 2026 | क्या फिर लगेगा Lockdown ?

Описание: India has reported a new Nipah Virus update in January 2026, creating concern across the country. As per official confirmation, West Bengal has reported only 2 confirmed Nipah cases since December 2025, both linked to healthcare exposure. One patient remains critical, but India’s Health Ministry and NCDC have clearly stated that the outbreak is fully contained. So far, 196 high-risk contacts have been traced and tested negative, with no evidence of community spread.

Despite this, panic is spreading globally. Several Asian countries including Thailand, Nepal, Singapore, Malaysia, and Hong Kong have started airport screening for passengers traveling from India/West Bengal, involving temperature checks, health questionnaires, and monitoring. This has triggered rumours about another lockdown — but officials have clarified that the risk remains low and controlled.

🎯 In this video, we separate FACTS from RUMOURS and explain:
Is India really under a Nipah Red Alert?
Will there be a lockdown again?
Why airport screening has started despite limited cases?
