    In the US, five of the children have died, and 15 have needed liver transplants.
    Globally, including the US, there have been 11 deaths, and in the UK, 11 children have received liver transplants.

    The CDC’s alert followed reports of children from England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland going to hospitals with unexplained hepatitis.

    As of May 1, there are 228 probable cases linked to the outbreak in 20 countries, with more than 50 cases under investigation, Dr. Philippa Easterbrook, a senior scientist in the World Health Organization’s Global Hepatitis Program, said in a briefing Wednesday.
