Four-year-old from Bolton in hospital with Strep A 'poorliest girl in whole of England'

A four-year-old girl from Bolton is 'fighting for her life' in hospital after contracting Strep A.

Camila Rose Burns is on a ventilator at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital and 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.

She needed emergency care by Monday (November 28), just days after she'd been happily dancing with friends on Friday evening. Mr Burns said that Camila is "she’s basically not the same girl any more".
