India Battles Nipah Virus Outbreak

India is working hard to stop the spread of the Nipah virus in West Bengal.

More than 100 people have been asked to stay home to make sure they don't get others sick.

Five people, including some doctors and nurses, have the virus, and one of them is very sick.

The infected people are being treated in hospitals around Kolkata.

The Nipah virus can be very dangerous, so it's important to take steps to keep it from spreading.

Health officials have tested 180 people, and 20 who are at high risk are being watched closely.

So far, these high-risk people don't have symptoms and have tested negative for the virus.
