A health expert has warned people to look out for certain 'red flag' symptoms which could be a sign your child has Strep A.
Dr Hilary appeared on Good Morning Britain to warn parents that although it's rare for the bacterial disease to be life-threatening, it's important to be vigilant and spot the signs as early as possible.
It comes as Strep A infections in Scotland have shot up in recent weeks, with health officials reporting 437 cases in the past fortnight.
