The devastated dad of a four-year-old girl fighting for her life in Alder Hey after contracting Strep A has warned parents to be "alert to the symptoms" and "act quickly."
Four-year-old Camila Rose Burns from Bolton had been dancing with her friends last Friday before becoming unwell. Last weekend she was rushed to Alder Hey Children's Hospital in Liverpool and is currently on a ventilator.
Her dad said that hospital staff described her as "the poorliest girl in the whole of England”. Dean Burns said he has been "living in an absolute nightmare" since her condition worsened last weekend.
