Traces of lead and nickel have been found in the blood of people who contracted the mystery illness in Andhra Pradesh’s Eluru, doctors from the All-India Institute of Medical Sciences have found.

Nearly 400 people have been found ailing since December 5, more than 45 children below the age of 12 are among them. All complained of convulsions, nausea and fainting. One person, a 45-year-old, has died.
Doctors are yet to diagnose the illness, which has struck parts of the area amid the Covid outbreak. A battery of teams from various medical organisations and hospitals are trying to figure out the cause.

Teams from the World Health Organisation, the Indian Council of Medical Research, AIIMS as well as National Institute of Nutrition, Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology, and Indian Institute of Chemical Technology are examining the blood and other samples taken from the patients.

This is really sad & unfortunate. I hope people recover & doctors & scientists are able to discover root cause of this illness.

There is something wrong in drinking water supply or in nonveg foods (less chance)

Yes brother there’s a panic situation in eluru since 2-3 days now the situation is getting better though there’s a decrease in number still patients are admitting in hospital i think it would be definitely local contamination through industries so every industrial drinage system should be checked and fix the contamination spots where ever the water is getting contaminated.

finally we people cant do anything as of now hope this will be solved and good days will be back very soon plus1 pray
