A UK 12-year-old girl hospitalized with severe flu complications is urging parents to vaccinate children.
A 12-year-old girl from Gateshead, UK, was hospitalized with severe flu complications including sepsis, necrotizing pneumonia, and a flu-induced coma, prompting health officials to urge parents to vaccinate children.
Initially mistaken for a common cold, her condition rapidly worsened despite two hospital visits where she received antibiotics and paracetamol.
She spent nearly three weeks in intensive care.
The case highlights the flu’s potential to severely affect healthy children, leading the NHS to reinforce its recommendation for annual flu vaccinations for children aged two to three, school-aged children up to year 11, and those with long-term health conditions.
