There are two employees in a kindergarten in Tau who have been hospitalized. Health manager Marthe Sirnes in Strand municipality confirms this to news. She says the admissions took place on Wednesday. It was Strandbuen that mentioned the case first. It is the viral variant of meningitis that has been detected, not a bacterial infection which is the infectious variant. – The variant that has now been detected usually causes a milder course of the disease than when it comes to viruses, says the health manager. The parents in the kindergarten at Tau have been informed, and the health manager encourages them to keep an eye on symptoms in children, even if the meningitis is not directly contagious. The most common symptoms are fever, headache, nausea, dizziness, neck pain or, in the worst case, unconsciousness. The municipality has also given advice on advice on stricter hand and cough hygiene in the nursery. Published 01.11.2024, at 13.38 Updated 01.11.2024, at 14.04
