Suspected Gastroenteritis Outbreak in South Mizoram Claims Six Lives

A sickness causing stomach problems like diarrhea and vomiting has made six people very sick and they passed away in southern Mizoram.

Doctors think it's a type of stomach bug called gastroenteritis.

They've taken samples from sick people and the village water to figure out exactly what it is.

Some people might have brought the sickness from another country.

To stop it from spreading, villagers are not allowed to visit other places, and no one new is allowed into the village.
