The Eastern Health Board confirmed last night that three members of the same family in Belfast have contracted the potentially fatal E-Coli bug, a toddler and two relatives, including an adult who needed hospital treatment.
The child, aged under four, attends Rosetta Primary School. As a consequence the board is expected to screen around 40 children and staff who have an association with the nursery unit.
