Commissioner for Health, Mr Felix Tangwami, revealed this to newsmen in Mubi on Saturday, saying that more than 200 children in the local government area were already infected.<\/p>\n

He said the outbreak was reported in Yola on Saturday, leading to a quick mobilisation of medics and drugs to affected communities.<\/p>\n

He assured that children with severe infections would be referred to hospitals.<\/p>\n

According to the commissioner, the medical team would move from Mubi to Gombi Local Government Area, where another outbreak had been reported.<\/p>\n

Tangwami blamed the refusal of parents to immunise their children for the outbreak.<\/p>\n
