A child has died following an outbreak of the E. coli O157 bug in Scotland.
The child was among 20 confirmed cases of infection – detected between 2 and 15 July – 11 of whom had received hospital treatment.
Health officials are investigating possible links to Dunsyre blue cheese, which is made with unpasteurised milk.
South Lanarkshire-based Errington Cheese, which makes Dunsyre blue, said last month that testing had shown it to be “completely clear of E. coli O157“.
