People in the UK are now facing the "highly likely" arrival of a potentially fatal disease that kills nearly every second patient, which has been brought about by climate change.
Scientists have been discussing with politicians about the potential issues surrounding a new illness possibly arriving in the country, as the Government attempts to prepare for a new wave of infection.
There is great concern over a new disease called Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF), which has a mortality rate of up to 40 per cent, reports the Mirror. The World Health Organisation (WHO) has stated that CCHF is difficult to treat and spreads quickly, either by ticks or certain animal tissue.
