– Health officials in France are scrambling to contain an outbreak of a mysterious virus that has killed at least 33 people in the country this year. The latest report from the country’s health ministry shows that more than 25,000 new cases of coronavirus have been reported in the past 24 hours, with 122 of those deaths occurring in hospitals, Reuters reports. The disease, which causes vomiting and fever and is related to the common cold, has been traced to an 11-year-old boy who died in a Paris-area hospital last month. The boy’s family says he had recently traveled to Spain, where the disease is more common, and the Health Ministry says it is investigating the cause of the death.
